The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 BLUE SPRUCE CLOSE sales between June 2001 and August 2011 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 September 2009 sale was for 71% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 71% above the HPI over time, until the August 2011 sale, where it falls to 61% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% above the HPI.
