20 SHAFTESBURY DRIVE 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 two 20 SHAFTESBURY DRIVE sales from December 2005 and May 2017 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 December 2005 sale was for 112% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 112% above the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it falls to 100% above the HPI.
