8 WHETSTONE 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 two 8 WHETSTONE CLOSE sales from November 2008 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 November 2008 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it rises to 19% below the HPI.
