26 VICARAGE CLOSE 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 VICARAGE CLOSE sales from July 2015 and September 2021 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 2015 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI.
