50 KIRBY DRIVE 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 50 KIRBY DRIVE sales between April 1997 and February 2014 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 2006 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the February 2014 sale, where it rises to 11% below the HPI.
