551 LOWTHER 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 551 LOWTHER ROAD sales from August 1999 and February 2021 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 1999 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
