5 GROVE ROAD 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 5 GROVE ROAD sales from July 2011 and February 2017 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 July 2011 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.
