79 EMERALD ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 79 EMERALD ROAD sales from June 1999 and November 2010 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 June 1999 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the November 2010 sale, where it falls to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 79 EMERALD ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 98.5%, between November 2010 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 98.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 79 EMERALD ROAD of £157,500 on 19th November 2010. For the value to have increased from £157,500 to £312,655 over the thirteen years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
