8 HARPENDEN ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 HARPENDEN ROAD sales from July 2009 and June 2015 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 2009 sale was for 154% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 154% above the HPI over time, until the June 2015 sale, where it falls to 139% above the HPI.
