7 HARTWELL 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 7 HARTWELL CRESCENT sales between March 1997 and July 2011 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 December 2005 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the July 2011 sale, where it rises to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.

What might 7 HARTWELL CRESCENT be worth now?

7 HARTWELL CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £445,665.

This is based on house price inflation of 96.8%, between July 2011 and December 2024, 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 96.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 HARTWELL CRESCENT of £226,500 on 18th July 2011. For the value to have increased from £226,500 to £445,665 over the twelve years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
