16 CHARD DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 CHARD DRIVE sales between May 1997 and October 2017 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 March 1999 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the October 2017 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might 16 CHARD DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 13.1%, between October 2017 and February 2025, for 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 13.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 CHARD DRIVE of £290,000 on 27th October 2017. For the value to have increased from £290,000 to £328,067 over the eight years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
