ARLINGTON HOUSE 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 three ARLINGTON HOUSE sales between October 1996 and September 2013 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 November 1997 sale was for 161% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 161% above the HPI over time, until the September 2013 sale, where it falls to 148% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 148% above the HPI.
