WESLEY 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 three WESLEY sales between October 1998 and June 2020 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 August 2004 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the June 2020 sale, where it rises to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.
