4 MAYFIELDS 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 MAYFIELDS sales between July 1995 and April 2013 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 March 2003 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the April 2013 sale, which was also at 14% above the HPI.

What might 4 MAYFIELDS be worth now?

4 MAYFIELDS might now be worth an estimated £692,301.

This is based on house price inflation of 84.6%, between April 2013 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 84.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 MAYFIELDS of £375,000 on 16th April 2013. For the value to have increased from £375,000 to £692,301 over the ten years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 MAYFIELDS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The April 2013 sale price of £375,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 MAYFIELDS has not materially changed since April 2013.
