18 SEATON DRIVE 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 four 18 SEATON DRIVE sales between October 2005 and August 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 September 2018 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it falls to 47% below the HPI.
