61 BOWER STREET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 61 BOWER STREET sales between April 1995 and January 2021 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 August 2016 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it rises to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.
