71 BIDEFORD GREEN 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 six 71 BIDEFORD GREEN sales between November 2001 and July 2015 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 2013 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, which was also at 7% above the HPI.

What might 71 BIDEFORD GREEN be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 52.5%, between July 2015 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 52.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 71 BIDEFORD GREEN of £259,995 on 21st July 2015. For the value to have increased from £259,995 to £396,434 over the eight years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
