12 WHITTINGHAM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 12 WHITTINGHAM CLOSE sales between June 1997 and September 2012 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 2007 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the September 2012 sale, where it rises to 13% below the HPI.
