KINGFISHER 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 KINGFISHER sales from June 2010 and May 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 June 2010 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, where it rises to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.
