78 LUTON ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 78 LUTON ROAD sales between August 1995 and September 2019 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 2001 sale was for 47% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% below the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it rises to 42% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% below the HPI.
