77 NICOLSON DRIVE 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 77 NICOLSON DRIVE sales between October 2004 and September 2018 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 2018 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.
