8 FLITT LEYS CLOSE 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 two 8 FLITT LEYS CLOSE sales from August 2009 and January 2020 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the August 2009 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it falls to 46% below the HPI.
