3 MEPHAM ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 MEPHAM ROAD sales between October 1998 and July 2010 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 2005 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the July 2010 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 3 MEPHAM ROAD be worth now?

3 MEPHAM ROAD might now be worth an estimated £461,313.

This is based on house price inflation of 84.5%, between July 2010 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Bedford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 84.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 MEPHAM ROAD of £250,000 on 9th July 2010. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £461,313 over the thirteen years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 MEPHAM ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bedford local authority area.
• The July 2010 sale price of £250,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 MEPHAM ROAD has not materially changed since July 2010.
