25 POPLAR AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 25 POPLAR AVENUE sales from July 2002 and December 2020 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 2002 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it rises to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.

What might 25 POPLAR AVENUE be worth now?
