45 PORTLAND CLOSE 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 three 45 PORTLAND CLOSE sales between December 2000 and November 2024 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 2010 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the November 2024 sale, where it rises to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.
