12A THE CLOSE 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 12A THE CLOSE sales from January 2014 and September 2022 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 January 2014 sale was for 83% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 83% below the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it rises to 37% below the HPI.
