79 MELBOURN ROAD 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 79 MELBOURN ROAD sales from January 2007 and September 2020 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 January 2007 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it rises to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.
