2 HOWKIN CLOSE 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 two 2 HOWKIN CLOSE sales from May 2005 and December 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 May 2005 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the December 2011 sale, which was also at 24% below the HPI.

What might 2 HOWKIN CLOSE be worth now?

2 HOWKIN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £410,356.

This is based on house price inflation of 86.5%, between December 2011 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 86.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 HOWKIN CLOSE of £220,000 on 6th December 2011. For the value to have increased from £220,000 to £410,356 over the fourteen years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 HOWKIN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bedford local authority area.
