The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 31 SWORDER CLOSE sales between September 2006 and July 2022 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 May 2016 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it falls to 6% below the HPI.
