85 PALMER CRESCENT 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 85 PALMER CRESCENT sales from June 2004 and December 2016 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 June 2004 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the December 2016 sale, where it falls to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.
