7 ARMSTRONG 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 two 7 ARMSTRONG CLOSE sales from May 2004 and February 2013 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 2004 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the February 2013 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI.
