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 THE CHILTERNS sales from October 1995 and January 2020 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 October 1995 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.
