16 BELL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 BELL CLOSE sales between June 2002 and July 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 October 2007 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it falls to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.

What might 16 BELL CLOSE be worth now?
