12 KIRKSTALL 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 three 12 KIRKSTALL CLOSE sales between November 1998 and July 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 November 2013 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the July 2021 sale, where it rises to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.

What might 12 KIRKSTALL CLOSE be worth now?
