The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 38 WILLOUGHBY CLOSE sales from October 2010 and July 2011 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 2010 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the July 2011 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI.
