50 WICKSTEAD AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 50 WICKSTEAD AVENUE sales between December 2002 and February 2020 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 2004 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might 50 WICKSTEAD AVENUE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 21.9%, between February 2020 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Luton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 21.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 50 WICKSTEAD AVENUE of £280,000 on 28th February 2020. For the value to have increased from £280,000 to £341,384 over the three years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
