9 ORCHARD 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 two 9 ORCHARD CLOSE sales from June 2009 and August 2010 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 2009 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the August 2010 sale, where it falls to 42% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% below the HPI.
