32 THE HEATH 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 four 32 THE HEATH sales between March 1998 and September 2012 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 September 2007 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the September 2012 sale, where it rises to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.
