98 CURLEW CRESCENT 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 two 98 CURLEW CRESCENT sales from January 2010 and July 2013 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 January 2010 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 98 CURLEW CRESCENT be worth now?
