4 PALMER CLOSE 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 4 PALMER CLOSE sales from April 1998 and March 2011 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 April 1998 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the March 2011 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might 4 PALMER CLOSE be worth now?

4 PALMER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £439,968.

This is based on house price inflation of 95.5%, between March 2011 and February 2025, 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 95.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 PALMER CLOSE of £225,000 on 18th March 2011. For the value to have increased from £225,000 to £439,968 over the fourteen years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 PALMER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The March 2011 sale price of £225,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 PALMER CLOSE has not materially changed since March 2011.
