4 MALLARD CLOSE 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 three 4 MALLARD CLOSE sales between July 2002 and June 2014 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 August 2011 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it falls to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.
