Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £311,139. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Luton are now selling for between £3,300 and £4,420 per square metre (£306 and £410 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 72 m², this implies a valuation between £238,000 and £318,000. Treat this as context only.
