15 COTSWOLD DRIVE 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 two 15 COTSWOLD DRIVE sales from January 2018 and June 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 January 2018 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the June 2023 sale, where it rises to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.

What might 15 COTSWOLD DRIVE be worth now?
