36 DARLOW 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 two 36 DARLOW DRIVE sales from February 2006 and April 2008 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 February 2006 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the April 2008 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI.
