2 THETFORD GARDENS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 2 THETFORD GARDENS sales between January 1999 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 November 2010 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 2 THETFORD GARDENS be worth now?

2 THETFORD GARDENS might now be worth an estimated £313,128.

This is based on house price inflation of 22.8%, between August 2019 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 22.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 THETFORD GARDENS of £255,000 on 29th August 2019. For the value to have increased from £255,000 to £313,128 over the four years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The August 2019 sale price of £255,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
