SILVERDALE 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 SILVERDALE sales between February 2000 and July 2015 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 January 2008 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it rises to 33% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% above the HPI.
