The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 42 FARTHING DRIVE sales from February 2002 and August 2009 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the February 2002 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI.
