39 THE MALTINGS 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 four 39 THE MALTINGS sales between May 1997 and July 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 November 2005 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, which was also at 32% below the HPI.

What might 39 THE MALTINGS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 5.6%, between July 2023 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 5.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 39 THE MALTINGS of £392,500 on 24th July 2023. For the value to have increased from £392,500 to £414,337 over the seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 39 THE MALTINGS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The July 2023 sale price of £392,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
