26 EMBLA 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 26 EMBLA CLOSE sales from December 2003 and March 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 December 2003 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.
