56 BIRLING 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 two 56 BIRLING DRIVE sales from May 2007 and August 2015 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 May 2007 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI.
