8 THE PADDOCKS 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 three 8 THE PADDOCKS sales between April 1995 and April 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 2001 sale was for 64% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 64% below the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it rises to 61% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% below the HPI.
