The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 38 DOWNS ROAD sales between May 2007 and March 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 2015 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the March 2022 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI.
