THE MALLARDS 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 THE MALLARDS sales from April 1998 and May 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 April 1998 sale was for 60% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 60% below the HPI over time, until the May 2000 sale, where it rises to 53% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% below the HPI.
