18 MINERVA DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Watford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 MINERVA DRIVE sales between January 2003 and May 2004 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 November 2003 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the May 2004 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI.
