15 SHEPHERDS MEAD 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 15 SHEPHERDS MEAD sales between March 1995 and April 2006 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 2002 sale was for 42% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% above the HPI over time, until the April 2006 sale, where it falls to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.
