THE WILLOWS 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 two THE WILLOWS sales from August 2017 and June 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 August 2017 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the June 2022 sale, where it falls to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.
