81 CASTLE 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 two 81 CASTLE ROAD sales from August 2010 and July 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 2010 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the July 2018 sale, where it rises to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.
