20 SHORTS AVENUE 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 20 SHORTS AVENUE sales between August 2002 and August 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 December 2005 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the August 2010 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI.
