50 CRANE WAY 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 50 CRANE WAY sales between July 1997 and November 2016 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 July 2007 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the November 2016 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 50 CRANE WAY be worth now?

50 CRANE WAY might now be worth an estimated £501,497.

This is based on house price inflation of 25.4%, between November 2016 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 25.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 50 CRANE WAY of £400,000 on 11th November 2016. For the value to have increased from £400,000 to £501,497 over the seven years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 50 CRANE WAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The November 2016 sale price of £400,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 50 CRANE WAY has not materially changed since November 2016.
