The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 2 ELGER CLOSE sales between March 1996 and December 2020 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the May 2014 sale was for 38% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 33% above the HPI.
