5 COOPERS CLOSE 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 5 COOPERS CLOSE sales from November 2000 and July 2009 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 November 2000 sale was for 175% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 175% above the HPI over time, until the July 2009 sale, where it falls to 148% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 148% above the HPI.

What might 5 COOPERS CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 104.2%, between July 2009 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 104.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 COOPERS CLOSE of £655,000 on 2nd July 2009. For the value to have increased from £655,000 to £1,337,530 over the sixteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
