3 BIRCH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 BIRCH CLOSE sales between June 2007 and February 2020 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 March 2014 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 3 BIRCH CLOSE be worth now?

3 BIRCH CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £332,157.

This is based on house price inflation of 23%, between February 2020 and March 2026, for terraced 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 23% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 BIRCH CLOSE of £270,000 on 14th February 2020. For the value to have increased from £270,000 to £332,157 over the five years and eleven months to March 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 BIRCH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The February 2020 sale price of £270,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
