26 BEDFORD ROAD 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 26 BEDFORD ROAD sales from November 2005 and November 2016 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 November 2005 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the November 2016 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.
