12 LOAK CLOSE 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 LOAK CLOSE sales from November 2003 and January 2020 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 November 2003 sale was for 44% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% above the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it falls to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.
