The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 261 HIGH TOWN ROAD sales from January 2002 and December 2013 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 January 2002 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the December 2013 sale, where it falls to 51% below the HPI.
