BURY FARM COTTAGE 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 BURY FARM COTTAGE sales from May 2002 and April 2024 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 May 2002 sale was for 132% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 132% above the HPI over time, until the April 2024 sale, where it falls to 74% below the HPI.
