16 DUKES RIDE 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 16 DUKES RIDE sales between June 1996 and August 2015 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 September 2002 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it falls to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.
