98 BIRDSFOOT LANE 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 three 98 BIRDSFOOT LANE sales between December 2003 and August 2017 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 January 2004 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 98 BIRDSFOOT LANE be worth now?

The 18.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 98 BIRDSFOOT LANE of £180,000 on 11th August 2017. For the value to have increased from £180,000 to £213,075 over the eight years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
