16 HARTWELL DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 HARTWELL DRIVE sales from August 2001 and July 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 August 2001 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.

What might 16 HARTWELL DRIVE be worth now?
