13 EMBLA 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 four 13 EMBLA CLOSE sales between November 2003 and January 2023 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 2007 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it falls to 36% below the HPI.
