17 EMBLA 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 three 17 EMBLA CLOSE sales between March 2004 and September 2023 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 March 2014 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the September 2023 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.
