17 THE HEATH 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 two 17 THE HEATH sales from November 1997 and February 2021 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 November 1997 sale was for 72% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 72% above the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it falls to 57% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 57% above the HPI.
