The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 62 KIRBY DRIVE sales between April 1995 and January 2020 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 2008 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.
