7 THE ROWANS 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 7 THE ROWANS sales between September 2002 and April 2009 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 August 2007 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the April 2009 sale, where it falls to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.
