The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 79 THE RIDGEWAY sales from August 1995 and February 2016 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 August 1995 sale was for 88% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 88% above the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it falls to 47% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% above the HPI.
