HAZELDENE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HAZELDENE sales from July 2004 and March 2016 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 July 2004 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it rises to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.
