The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 39 FRENCHS GATE sales between July 2002 and November 2023 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 August 2018 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it rises to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.
39 FRENCHS GATE might now be worth an estimated £397,648.
This is based on house price inflation of 6%, between November 2023 and December 2024, for semi-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 6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 39 FRENCHS GATE of £375,005 on 3rd November 2023. For the value to have increased from £375,005 to £397,648 over the eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
