HATCHING HALL 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 HATCHING HALL sales between February 1997 and December 2017 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 102% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 102% above the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it falls to 51% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% above the HPI.
