The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 129 COMMON ROAD sales between December 1995 and January 2015 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 October 2006 sale was for 62% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 62% below the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, where it rises to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.
