23 SUNSET 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 two 23 SUNSET DRIVE sales from October 1998 and June 2017 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 October 1998 sale was for 129% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 129% above the HPI over time, until the June 2017 sale, where it falls to 63% above the HPI.
