7 THE CHILTERNS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 7 THE CHILTERNS sales between December 1995 and August 2001 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 1997 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the August 2001 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.
