8 LILAC GROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 LILAC GROVE sales between April 1999 and April 2016 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 1999 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the April 2016 sale, where it falls to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might 8 LILAC GROVE be worth now?

8 LILAC GROVE might now be worth an estimated £416,309.

This is based on house price inflation of 34.3%, between April 2016 and December 2024, for 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 34.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 LILAC GROVE of £310,000 on 8th April 2016. For the value to have increased from £310,000 to £416,309 over the seven years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 LILAC GROVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The April 2016 sale price of £310,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
