25 NICOLSON DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 25 NICOLSON DRIVE sales between May 2004 and September 2015 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 July 2012 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the September 2015 sale, where it rises to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might 25 NICOLSON DRIVE be worth now?

25 NICOLSON DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £396,910.

This is based on house price inflation of 45.9%, between September 2015 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 45.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 25 NICOLSON DRIVE of £272,000 on 1st September 2015. For the value to have increased from £272,000 to £396,910 over the eight years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The September 2015 sale price of £272,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
