THE CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE CROFT sales from September 1996 and June 2000 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 1996 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the June 2000 sale, where it rises to 39% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% above the HPI.
