The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 240 COMMON ROAD sales from July 1995 and February 2004 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 1995 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the February 2004 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
