5 BRAMBLE 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 5 BRAMBLE CLOSE sales from November 2000 and November 2009 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 November 2000 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the November 2009 sale, where it falls to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might 5 BRAMBLE CLOSE be worth now?

5 BRAMBLE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £316,948.

This is based on house price inflation of 104.5%, between November 2009 and April 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 104.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 BRAMBLE CLOSE of £155,000 on 27th November 2009. For the value to have increased from £155,000 to £316,948 over the seventeen years and seven months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 BRAMBLE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The November 2009 sale price of £155,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
