138 DERWENT ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 138 DERWENT ROAD sales between January 1997 and December 2021 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 July 1999 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the December 2021 sale, where it rises to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.
