CORNCRAKE 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 CORNCRAKE sales between September 2009 and January 2024 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 March 2018 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the January 2024 sale, where it falls to 28% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% above the HPI.

What might CORNCRAKE be worth now?

CORNCRAKE might now be worth an estimated £688,883.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.1%, between January 2024 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 2.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CORNCRAKE of £675,000 on 26th January 2024. For the value to have increased from £675,000 to £688,883 over the eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CORNCRAKE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bedford local authority area.
• The January 2024 sale price of £675,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CORNCRAKE has not materially changed since January 2024.
