30 MERCURY LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 30 MERCURY LANE sales from March 2012 and July 2016 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 March 2012 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.

What might 30 MERCURY LANE be worth now?

30 MERCURY LANE might now be worth an estimated £528,165.

This is based on house price inflation of 28.8%, between July 2016 and December 2024, for 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 28.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 30 MERCURY LANE of £410,000 on 6th July 2016. For the value to have increased from £410,000 to £528,165 over the seven years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 30 MERCURY LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The July 2016 sale price of £410,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
