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 HOLYWELL CLOSE sales from January 2005 and January 2014 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 January 2005 sale was for 42% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% above the HPI over time, until the January 2014 sale, where it rises to 87% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 87% above the HPI.
