42 THE AVENUE 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 42 THE AVENUE sales from August 2007 and October 2018 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 August 2007 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
