8 SAXONS CLOSE 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 four 8 SAXONS CLOSE sales between July 2000 and November 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 August 2006 sale was for 45% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% below the HPI over time, until the November 2015 sale, where it rises to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might 8 SAXONS CLOSE be worth now?

8 SAXONS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £367,549.

This is based on house price inflation of 40%, between November 2015 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 40% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 SAXONS CLOSE of £262,500 on 27th November 2015. For the value to have increased from £262,500 to £367,549 over the eight years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 SAXONS CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The November 2015 sale price of £262,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
