The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 191 BIRCHEN GROVE sales between June 1998 and November 2012 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 October 2008 sale was for 49% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% below the HPI over time, until the November 2012 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.
191 BIRCHEN GROVE might now be worth an estimated £215,335.
This is based on house price inflation of 95.8%, between November 2012 and December 2024, for semi-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 95.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 191 BIRCHEN GROVE of £110,000 on 15th November 2012. For the value to have increased from £110,000 to £215,335 over the eleven years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
