24 GOLDCREST 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 four 24 GOLDCREST CLOSE sales between November 1997 and February 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 November 2016 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, which was also at 32% below the HPI.
