37 DITCHLING 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 two 37 DITCHLING CLOSE sales from March 2006 and October 2010 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 March 2006 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the October 2010 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 37 DITCHLING CLOSE be worth now?
