23 VERNE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 23 VERNE DRIVE sales from February 2011 and August 2022 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 2011 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it rises to 40% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% above the HPI.
