5 ROTTEN ROW 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 three 5 ROTTEN ROW sales between September 1995 and February 2021 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 April 2017 sale was for 41% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% below the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 5 ROTTEN ROW be worth now?

5 ROTTEN ROW might now be worth an estimated £550,118.

This is based on house price inflation of 17%, between February 2021 and December 2024, 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% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 ROTTEN ROW of £470,000 on 24th February 2021. For the value to have increased from £470,000 to £550,118 over the two years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 ROTTEN ROW has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bedford local authority area.
• The February 2021 sale price of £470,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 ROTTEN ROW has not materially changed since February 2021.
