22 ELGER 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 22 ELGER CLOSE sales between May 2009 and April 2024 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 2016 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the April 2024 sale, where it rises to 75% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 75% above the HPI.
