6 THE BOWER 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 two 6 THE BOWER sales from June 2015 and October 2018 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 June 2015 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, which was also at 19% below the HPI.
