DORMERS 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 DORMERS sales from July 1996 and November 2011 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 July 1996 sale was for 99% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 99% above the HPI over time, until the November 2011 sale, where it rises to 134% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 134% above the HPI.
