12 BELFRY CLOSE 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 four 12 BELFRY CLOSE sales between October 1999 and June 2016 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 June 2010 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the June 2016 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might 12 BELFRY CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 37.9%, between June 2016 and June 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 37.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 BELFRY CLOSE of £238,000 on 3rd June 2016. For the value to have increased from £238,000 to £328,199 over the nine years to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 12 BELFRY CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Bedford local authority area.
• The June 2016 sale price of £238,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
