The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 152 COMMON ROAD sales between March 1996 and August 2024 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 October 2015 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.
