The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 9 OLD SCHOOL DRIVE sales between April 2011 and November 2017 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the May 2017 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it falls to 51% below the HPI.
