The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 91 MERLIN DRIVE sales between September 1998 and August 2007 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 2000 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the August 2007 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.
