8 THE PARK 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 THE PARK sales from March 1998 and January 2023 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 1998 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it rises to 69% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 69% above the HPI.
