3 HATCHING GREEN COTTAGES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 HATCHING GREEN COTTAGES sales from October 1997 and April 2010 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 1997 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the April 2010 sale, where it rises to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.
