SEBASTIANS 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 three SEBASTIANS sales between January 2007 and December 2013 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 2011 sale was for 41% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% above the HPI over time, until the December 2013 sale, where it falls to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.
