38 CORMORANT WAY 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 38 CORMORANT WAY sales from November 2008 and June 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 November 2008 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the June 2015 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might 38 CORMORANT WAY be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 53.8%, between June 2015 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 53.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 38 CORMORANT WAY of £330,000 on 4th June 2015. For the value to have increased from £330,000 to £507,564 over the eight years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The June 2015 sale price of £330,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
