31 SANDLEFORD DRIVE 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 three 31 SANDLEFORD DRIVE sales between April 2003 and November 2018 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 December 2008 sale was for 42% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% below the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it falls to 49% below the HPI.
