5 HULME 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 HULME CLOSE sales from June 2002 and August 2003 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 June 2002 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the August 2003 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 5 HULME CLOSE be worth now?

5 HULME CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £405,814.

This is based on house price inflation of 125.5%, between August 2003 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 125.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 HULME CLOSE of £179,950 on 21st August 2003. For the value to have increased from £179,950 to £405,814 over the 22 years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 HULME CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bedford local authority area.
• The August 2003 sale price of £179,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
