7 SWALLOW CLOSE 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 7 SWALLOW CLOSE sales between April 2001 and August 2019 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 2002 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it falls to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.
