2 JOHNSON CLOSE 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 three 2 JOHNSON CLOSE sales between June 1995 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 June 2001 sale was for 68% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 68% above the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it falls to 51% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% above the HPI.
