22 SHAFTESBURY 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 two 22 SHAFTESBURY AVENUE sales from July 2013 and July 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 July 2013 sale was for 44% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% above the HPI over time, until the July 2017 sale, where it rises to 86% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 86% above the HPI.
