HILLTOP 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 HILLTOP sales from August 2007 and August 2014 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 2007 sale was for 69% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% above the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it rises to 129% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 129% above the HPI.

What might HILLTOP be worth now?

HILLTOP might now be worth an estimated £760,955.

This is based on house price inflation of 68.2%, between August 2014 and February 2025, 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 68.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HILLTOP of £452,500 on 29th August 2014. For the value to have increased from £452,500 to £760,955 over the eleven years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HILLTOP has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Bedford local authority area.
• The August 2014 sale price of £452,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HILLTOP has not materially changed since August 2014.
