6 COLCHESTER WAY 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 6 COLCHESTER WAY sales between December 2000 and October 2023 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 November 2020 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it rises to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.
