The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 FIRWAY CLOSE sales between December 1997 and August 2010 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 March 2004 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the August 2010 sale, which was also at 11% above the HPI.
