42 BROWNING CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 42 BROWNING CLOSE sales from May 2006 and February 2021 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 May 2006 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it falls to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.

What might 42 BROWNING CLOSE be worth now?
