8 DENSLEY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 DENSLEY CLOSE sales between January 1997 and July 2019 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 October 2014 sale was for 70% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 70% above the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it rises to 97% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 97% above the HPI.
