The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 74 WARDOWN CRESCENT sales between September 2000 and May 2024 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the April 2019 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the May 2024 sale, where it rises to 21% below the HPI.
