The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 38 THE CHILTERNS sales between April 1996 and July 2016 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 July 2005 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.
