5 THE RAILWAY 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 three 5 THE RAILWAY sales between June 2005 and July 2015 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 August 2007 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.
