21 PURBECK 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 six 21 PURBECK CLOSE sales between May 1997 and January 2023 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 February 2018 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
