4 NURSERY GARDENS 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 three 4 NURSERY GARDENS sales between January 2001 and January 2003 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 April 2001 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the January 2003 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 4 NURSERY GARDENS be worth now?
