5 SIMDIMS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 SIMDIMS sales between July 1997 and June 2018 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 October 2002 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the June 2018 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might 5 SIMDIMS be worth now?

5 SIMDIMS might now be worth an estimated £508,546.

This is based on house price inflation of 19%, between June 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 19% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 SIMDIMS of £427,500 on 8th June 2018. For the value to have increased from £427,500 to £508,546 over the five years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 SIMDIMS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The June 2018 sale price of £427,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 SIMDIMS has not materially changed since June 2018.
