FIELDGATE 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 FIELDGATE sales between July 1995 and September 2018 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 2000 sale was for 179% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 179% above the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it falls to 99% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 99% above the HPI.
