The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 79 ROUNDWOOD LANE sales from May 2016 and August 2023 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 2016 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it rises to 6% above the HPI.
