66 GILLESPIE CLOSE 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 66 GILLESPIE CLOSE sales between September 2003 and November 2017 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 February 2005 sale was for 47% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% below the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it rises to 44% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% below the HPI.
