CHALTON COTTAGE 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 CHALTON COTTAGE sales between October 1999 and June 2007 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 2003 sale was for 80% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 80% above the HPI over time, until the June 2007 sale, where it falls to 68% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 68% above the HPI.
