The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 15 PENNY CROFT sales between August 1998 and July 2001 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 December 2000 sale was for 56% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% above the HPI over time, until the July 2001 sale, where it rises to 68% above the HPI.
