12 COWPER ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 12 COWPER ROAD sales from June 1998 and March 2000 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 1998 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the March 2000 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.
