THE SPINNEY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE SPINNEY sales from June 1996 and March 2021 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 1996 sale was for 107% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 107% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 65% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 65% above the HPI.
