5 ROWAN 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 5 ROWAN CLOSE sales between June 1999 and November 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 November 2005 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the November 2015 sale, where it falls to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.
