16 WAGSTAFFE CLOSE 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 WAGSTAFFE CLOSE sales from April 1995 and January 2013 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 April 1995 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the January 2013 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 16 WAGSTAFFE CLOSE be worth now?
