17 HERON DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 17 HERON DRIVE sales between May 1999 and February 2023 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 January 2021 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
