17 SHORTS AVENUE 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 17 SHORTS AVENUE sales from January 2003 and September 2019 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 January 2003 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.
