The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 SKYLARK PLACE sales between May 2001 and October 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 August 2005 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, which was also at 29% below the HPI.
