40 LAUREL WALK 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 two 40 LAUREL WALK sales from June 2005 and September 2007 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 June 2005 sale was for 56% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% below the HPI over time, until the September 2007 sale, which was also at 56% below the HPI.
