4 DOWNS ROAD 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 4 DOWNS ROAD sales from April 2002 and February 2004 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 April 2002 sale was for 83% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 83% above the HPI over time, until the February 2004 sale, where it rises to 100% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 100% above the HPI.
