72 WAVENEY AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 72 WAVENEY AVENUE sales from September 2019 and May 2022 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 September 2019 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 72 WAVENEY AVENUE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 6%, between May 2022 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Bedford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 72 WAVENEY AVENUE of £285,000 on 27th May 2022. For the value to have increased from £285,000 to £302,118 over the three years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 72 WAVENEY AVENUE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Bedford local authority area.
• The May 2022 sale price of £285,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
