42 MARLEY FIELDS 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 two 42 MARLEY FIELDS sales from April 1998 and August 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 April 1998 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it falls to 46% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% below the HPI.
