15 MONTGOMERY AVENUE 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 MONTGOMERY AVENUE sales from September 1996 and August 2000 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 September 1996 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the August 2000 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.

What might 15 MONTGOMERY AVENUE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 231.9%, between August 2000 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 231.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 MONTGOMERY AVENUE of £148,000 on 18th August 2000. For the value to have increased from £148,000 to £491,172 over the 23 years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
