The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 19 FRANCIS GROVES CLOSE sales from November 1996 and October 2010 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 1996 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the October 2010 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.
