The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 SOMERTON CLOSE sales from January 1996 and August 2009 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the January 1996 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it falls to 8% below the HPI.
