12 WESTMINSTER GARDENS 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 three 12 WESTMINSTER GARDENS sales between July 1999 and January 2007 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 2001 sale was for 42% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% below the HPI over time, until the January 2007 sale, where it rises to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might 12 WESTMINSTER GARDENS be worth now?
