26 AUGUSTUS 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 three 26 AUGUSTUS CLOSE sales between June 2011 and June 2017 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 October 2011 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the June 2017 sale, where it rises to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.
