The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 253 LUTON ROAD sales between February 2008 and August 2015 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 May 2010 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI.
