61 DOUGLAS CRESCENT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 61 DOUGLAS CRESCENT sales between October 1999 and September 2013 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 March 2011 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the September 2013 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might 61 DOUGLAS CRESCENT be worth now?

61 DOUGLAS CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £425,917.

This is based on house price inflation of 85.2%, between September 2013 and February 2025, for semi-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 85.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 61 DOUGLAS CRESCENT of £230,000 on 9th September 2013. For the value to have increased from £230,000 to £425,917 over the twelve years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 61 DOUGLAS CRESCENT has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The September 2013 sale price of £230,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
