3 HOGARTH CLOSE 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 HOGARTH CLOSE sales from November 1998 and April 2015 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 November 1998 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, where it falls to 49% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% below the HPI.
