The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 13 BLAKE CLOSE sales between July 1998 and October 2018 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the July 2016 sale was for 69% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% below the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI.
