8 REPTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 REPTON CLOSE sales between June 1997 and July 2018 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 May 2008 sale was for 37% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% above the HPI over time, until the July 2018 sale, where it falls to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might 8 REPTON CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 16.4%, between July 2018 and February 2025, for 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 16.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 REPTON CLOSE of £500,000 on 6th July 2018. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £581,926 over the seven years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
