3 ELM FARM 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 3 ELM FARM CLOSE sales from April 2006 and May 2019 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 2006 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the May 2019 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.
