The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 56 RICHMOND HILL sales from May 2016 and January 2017 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 May 2016 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
56 RICHMOND HILL might now be worth an estimated £361,958.
This is based on house price inflation of 27%, between January 2017 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 27% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 56 RICHMOND HILL of £285,000 on 12th January 2017. For the value to have increased from £285,000 to £361,958 over the six years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
