The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 56 LORIMER CLOSE sales between September 1995 and August 2006 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 July 2002 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the August 2006 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.
