7 HOWDEN GARDENS 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 three 7 HOWDEN GARDENS sales between December 1998 and November 2004 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 December 1999 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the November 2004 sale, where it falls to 23% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% above the HPI.
