18 HOME CLOSE 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 four 18 HOME CLOSE sales between February 2003 and December 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 September 2013 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the December 2015 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.
