52 WALCOURT ROAD 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 52 WALCOURT ROAD sales between May 1999 and July 2003 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 2000 sale was for 54% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% below the HPI over time, until the July 2003 sale, where it rises to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.
