8 MERCHANT LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 MERCHANT LANE sales from June 2016 and March 2017 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 2016 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the March 2017 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.
