16 AURORA RISE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 AURORA RISE sales from June 2014 and August 2019 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 June 2014 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 16 AURORA RISE be worth now?

16 AURORA RISE might now be worth an estimated £368,665.

This is based on house price inflation of 23.9%, between August 2019 and February 2025, for semi-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 23.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 AURORA RISE of £297,500 on 16th August 2019. For the value to have increased from £297,500 to £368,665 over the six years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 AURORA RISE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The August 2019 sale price of £297,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 16 AURORA RISE has not materially changed since August 2019.
