The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 7 BEARTON AVENUE sales between September 1998 and September 2011 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the February 2005 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the September 2011 sale, where it rises to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.
