The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 243 COMMON ROAD sales between December 2002 and April 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 August 2009 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the April 2017 sale, where it rises to 33% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% above the HPI.
