The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six 4 SCHOOL LANE sales between June 1997 and September 2017 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 November 2015 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.
