22 AMES 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 three 22 AMES CLOSE sales between April 2001 and February 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 August 2005 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the February 2012 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.
