16 THE PINES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 16 THE PINES sales between June 2002 and October 2023 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 2008 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might 16 THE PINES be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 1.5%, between October 2023 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Bedford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 THE PINES of £275,000 on 31st October 2023. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £279,211 over the two years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 THE PINES has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Bedford local authority area.
• The October 2023 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
