8 MCCRAE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 MCCRAE CLOSE sales from May 2016 and June 2021 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the May 2016 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 44% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% below the HPI.
