The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 7 DUCK END CLOSE sales from June 2002 and April 2015 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 2002 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, where it falls to 1% below the HPI.
