9 WHITTINGHAM CLOSE 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 9 WHITTINGHAM CLOSE sales between November 2003 and November 2018 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 June 2005 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI.
