9 THORPE CLOSE 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 two 9 THORPE CLOSE sales from March 1999 and June 2020 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 March 1999 sale was for 99% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 99% above the HPI over time, until the June 2020 sale, where it falls to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.
