HIGH RIDGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HIGH RIDGE sales between December 1995 and August 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 May 1997 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it rises to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.
