24 MARKFIELD CLOSE 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 24 MARKFIELD CLOSE sales between September 1997 and June 2018 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 December 2017 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the June 2018 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might 24 MARKFIELD CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 18.2%, between June 2018 and February 2025, 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 18.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 24 MARKFIELD CLOSE of £267,000 on 25th June 2018. For the value to have increased from £267,000 to £315,665 over the seven years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 24 MARKFIELD CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Luton local authority area.
