The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 88 ALBURGH CLOSE sales between March 1995 and May 2008 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 November 1999 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the May 2008 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.
88 ALBURGH CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £240,362.
