7 WENSLEY 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 two 7 WENSLEY CLOSE sales from June 2009 and March 2016 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 June 2009 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it rises to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.
