8 MATLOCK CRESCENT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 MATLOCK CRESCENT sales between October 2001 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 July 2002 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it falls to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.
