242 DUNSTABLE ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 242 DUNSTABLE ROAD sales between December 1999 and September 2007 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 February 2005 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the September 2007 sale, where it rises to 48% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% above the HPI.
