The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 144 HOCKLIFFE ROAD sales between April 1995 and January 2018 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 2008 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.
