The below table shows the price paid for the three sales, along with the average detached price in the Luton local authority area for the corresponding sale date.

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 CAPRON ROAD sales between April 2003 and February 2019 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 July 2013 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.
