LORELEY 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 LORELEY sales from June 1998 and September 1999 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 June 1998 sale was for 36% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% above the HPI over time, until the September 1999 sale, where it rises to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.
