15 CARINA DRIVE 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 two 15 CARINA DRIVE sales from May 2007 and July 2010 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 May 2007 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the July 2010 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 15 CARINA DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 86.9%, between July 2010 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 86.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 CARINA DRIVE of £246,000 on 20th July 2010. For the value to have increased from £246,000 to £459,655 over the thirteen years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The July 2010 sale price of £246,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
