4 RYECROFT WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 RYECROFT WAY sales from March 2011 and May 2014 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 2011 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it falls to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might 4 RYECROFT WAY be worth now?

4 RYECROFT WAY might now be worth an estimated £332,288.

This is based on house price inflation of 80.6%, between May 2014 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Luton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 80.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 RYECROFT WAY of £184,000 on 28th May 2014. For the value to have increased from £184,000 to £332,288 over the nine years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 RYECROFT WAY has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Luton local authority area.
• The May 2014 sale price of £184,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
