24 LICHFIELD 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 two 24 LICHFIELD CLOSE sales from June 2003 and October 2015 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 2003 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI.
