18 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 five 18 THE HEATH sales between March 1995 and May 2012 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 2008 sale was for 40% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% above the HPI over time, until the May 2012 sale, where it rises to 59% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 59% above the HPI.
