MILL COTTAGE 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 three MILL COTTAGE sales between July 1997 and September 2021 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 February 2001 sale was for 108% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 108% above the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it falls to 28% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% above the HPI.
