The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 30 PLAYFIELD CLOSE sales between April 2000 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 October 2007 sale was for 57% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% below the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI.
