THE CHESTNUTS 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 four THE CHESTNUTS sales between August 1996 and January 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 September 2007 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, where it rises to 39% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% above the HPI.
