9 BARKERS 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 three 9 BARKERS CLOSE sales between November 1996 and February 2019 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 2012 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it rises to 29% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% above the HPI.

What might 9 BARKERS CLOSE be worth now?
