23 MAIN ROAD 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 23 MAIN ROAD sales from June 1996 and August 2002 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 1996 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the August 2002 sale, where it falls to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.
