27 ORCHARD WAY 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 three 27 ORCHARD WAY sales between June 1997 and August 2011 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 February 2007 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the August 2011 sale, where it rises to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.

What might 27 ORCHARD WAY be worth now?

27 ORCHARD WAY might now be worth an estimated £390,472.

This is based on house price inflation of 98.2%, between August 2011 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 98.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 27 ORCHARD WAY of £197,000 on 15th August 2011. For the value to have increased from £197,000 to £390,472 over the twelve years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 27 ORCHARD WAY has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Luton local authority area.
• The August 2011 sale price of £197,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 27 ORCHARD WAY has not materially changed since August 2011.
