3 HERON 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 three 3 HERON CLOSE sales between November 2001 and September 2017 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 August 2009 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
