3 CROXDEN WAY 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 3 CROXDEN WAY sales from October 1999 and December 2014 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 October 1999 sale was for 45% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% above the HPI over time, until the December 2014 sale, where it falls to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might 3 CROXDEN WAY be worth now?
