4 GOODMAN DRIVE 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 three 4 GOODMAN DRIVE sales between December 2004 and January 2018 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 2005 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it falls to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 4 GOODMAN DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 18.8%, between January 2018 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 18.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 GOODMAN DRIVE of £467,500 on 31st January 2018. For the value to have increased from £467,500 to £555,179 over the five years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
