The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Watford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 RUFFORD CLOSE sales from February 2000 and August 2001 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the February 2000 sale was for 78% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 78% above the HPI over time, until the August 2001 sale, where it rises to 86% above the HPI.
