48 DUNSMORE ROAD 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 48 DUNSMORE ROAD sales from August 1997 and May 2008 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 1997 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the May 2008 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 48 DUNSMORE ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 80.3%, between May 2008 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 80.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 48 DUNSMORE ROAD of £175,000 on 28th May 2008. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £315,606 over the fifteen years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
