8 MORTIMER ROAD 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 four 8 MORTIMER ROAD sales between September 1995 and December 2021 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 February 2016 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the December 2021 sale, where it rises to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.
