26 THE BELFRY 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 four 26 THE BELFRY sales between May 1998 and April 2005 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 April 2004 sale was for 56% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% below the HPI over time, until the April 2005 sale, which was also at 56% below the HPI.
