17 USHER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 USHER CLOSE sales from June 2004 and October 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 June 2004 sale was for 47% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% above the HPI over time, until the October 2021 sale, where it falls to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.
