HIGH RIDGE 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 HIGH RIDGE sales from March 2019 and February 2022 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 March 2019 sale was for 74% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 74% above the HPI over time, until the February 2022 sale, where it rises to 218% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 218% above the HPI.
