16 UPTON CLOSE 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 four 16 UPTON CLOSE sales between November 1996 and June 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 June 2006 sale was for 52% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% below the HPI over time, until the June 2022 sale, where it falls to 63% below the HPI.
