The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six 7 CRESSWELL GARDENS sales between May 1996 and December 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 February 2017 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 36% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% below the HPI.
