9 EMBLA CLOSE 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 9 EMBLA CLOSE sales between April 2004 and September 2012 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 September 2009 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the September 2012 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI.
