73 HOWARD DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 73 HOWARD DRIVE sales from May 1995 and June 2015 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 May 1995 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the June 2015 sale, where it rises to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.
