7 DAWES LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 7 DAWES LANE sales from November 2001 and September 2011 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the November 2001 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the September 2011 sale, where it falls to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.
