9 COMET DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 9 COMET DRIVE sales between November 1999 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 June 2018 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it rises to 29% below the HPI.
