The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 BUTTERCUP CLOSE sales between March 1996 and March 2023 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 January 1998 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it falls to 38% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% below the HPI.
