15 BLACKBIRD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 BLACKBIRD CLOSE sales from December 2009 and November 2018 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 December 2009 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 15 BLACKBIRD CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 20.9%, between November 2018 and March 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 20.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 BLACKBIRD CLOSE of £316,000 on 2nd November 2018. For the value to have increased from £316,000 to £382,018 over the eight years and eight months to March 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 15 BLACKBIRD CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
