LONGRIDGE 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 LONGRIDGE sales from May 2016 and September 2020 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 May 2016 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.
