132 ROCHFORD DRIVE 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 three 132 ROCHFORD DRIVE sales between March 1997 and September 2023 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 2006 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the September 2023 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI.
