14 BIRCH WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 14 BIRCH WAY sales between November 2002 and June 2014 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 April 2008 sale was for 44% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% above the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it rises to 71% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 71% above the HPI.
