VIEW POINT 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 VIEW POINT sales from March 1995 and June 2007 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 March 1995 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the June 2007 sale, where it rises to 65% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 65% above the HPI.
