13 HERON DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 13 HERON DRIVE sales between October 1998 and December 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 November 2017 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the December 2021 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might 13 HERON DRIVE be worth now?

13 HERON DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £194,415.

This is based on house price inflation of 4.8%, between December 2021 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Luton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 13 HERON DRIVE of £185,500 on 3rd December 2021. For the value to have increased from £185,500 to £194,415 over the four years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 13 HERON DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Luton local authority area.
• The December 2021 sale price of £185,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
