1 THORPE CLOSE 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 1 THORPE CLOSE sales from April 2009 and August 2015 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 April 2009 sale was for 85% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 85% above the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it rises to 92% above the HPI.
