15 MENTMORE GARDENS 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 MENTMORE GARDENS sales from May 1996 and May 1998 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 May 1996 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the May 1998 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.
