The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 7 OLD RECTORY GARDENS sales between November 1995 and October 2025 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the January 2008 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the October 2025 sale, where it rises to 3% above the HPI.
