34 JOYCE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 34 JOYCE CLOSE sales from November 2012 and March 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 November 2012 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, which was also at 1% below the HPI.

What might 34 JOYCE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 44.1%, between March 2016 and February 2025, for semi-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 44.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 34 JOYCE CLOSE of £227,500 on 30th March 2016. For the value to have increased from £227,500 to £327,844 over the nine years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
