159 BISHOPSCOTE ROAD 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 two 159 BISHOPSCOTE ROAD sales from April 2007 and March 2011 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 April 2007 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the March 2011 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
