3 ELMS 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 ELMS CLOSE sales between March 2008 and April 2019 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 2010 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it rises to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.

What might 3 ELMS CLOSE be worth now?

3 ELMS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £389,153.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.6%, between April 2019 and June 2025, 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 21.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 ELMS CLOSE of £320,000 on 8th April 2019. For the value to have increased from £320,000 to £389,153 over the five years and ten months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 ELMS CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The April 2019 sale price of £320,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 ELMS CLOSE has not materially changed since April 2019.
