The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 BRIGHTVIEW CLOSE sales between May 1996 and March 2012 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the August 1999 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the March 2012 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI.
