4 THE HOLLIES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 THE HOLLIES sales from September 2015 and April 2019 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 September 2015 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it falls to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.

What might 4 THE HOLLIES be worth now?

4 THE HOLLIES might now be worth an estimated £317,101.

This is based on house price inflation of 17.4%, between April 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bedford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 17.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 THE HOLLIES of £270,000 on 2nd April 2019. For the value to have increased from £270,000 to £317,101 over the six years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 THE HOLLIES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bedford local authority area.
• The April 2019 sale price of £270,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 THE HOLLIES has not materially changed since April 2019.
