70 HOCKLIFFE STREET 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 three 70 HOCKLIFFE STREET sales between May 1996 and May 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 September 2004 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 70 HOCKLIFFE STREET be worth now?

The 22.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 70 HOCKLIFFE STREET of £230,000 on 31st May 2018. For the value to have increased from £230,000 to £282,747 over the seven years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
