10 BISHOP CLOSE 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 four 10 BISHOP CLOSE sales between November 2000 and July 2018 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 July 2005 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the July 2018 sale, where it falls to 12% below the HPI.
