EAST COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two EAST COTTAGE sales from August 2006 and June 2011 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 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the June 2011 sale, where it rises to 64% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 64% above the HPI.

What might EAST COTTAGE be worth now?

EAST COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £547,336.

This is based on house price inflation of 99%, between June 2011 and December 2024, for semi-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 99% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for EAST COTTAGE of £275,000 on 20th June 2011. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £547,336 over the twelve years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of EAST COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Bedford local authority area.
• The June 2011 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of EAST COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2011.
