The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 THETFORD CLOSE sales between March 1997 and September 2015 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the July 1998 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the September 2015 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI.
