SWIFT BARN 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 SWIFT BARN sales between October 2001 and July 2006 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 December 2003 sale was for 69% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% above the HPI over time, until the July 2006 sale, where it falls to 64% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 64% above the HPI.
