13 LEISTON 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 13 LEISTON CLOSE sales from June 2009 and January 2014 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 2009 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the January 2014 sale, where it falls to 46% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% below the HPI.
