2 RANSOM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 RANSOM CLOSE sales from January 1999 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 January 1999 sale was for 59% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% above the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it rises to 76% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 76% above the HPI.
