The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 72 POLHILL AVENUE sales from November 2020 and February 2024 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the November 2020 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the February 2024 sale, where it falls to 11% above the HPI.
