The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 HOLDEN CLOSE sales from June 2005 and June 2022 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 2005 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the June 2022 sale, where it falls to 6% below the HPI.
