The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 MARKFIELD CLOSE sales from December 2003 and February 2015 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 December 2003 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the February 2015 sale, where it rises to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.
