8 BIRCHALL WOOD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 8 BIRCHALL WOOD sales between June 1995 and November 2019 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 July 2013 sale was for 51% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% below the HPI over time, until the November 2019 sale, where it falls to 53% below the HPI.
