12 THE CRESCENT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 12 THE CRESCENT sales from September 2004 and April 2015 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 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 12 THE CRESCENT be worth now?

12 THE CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £455,383.

This is based on house price inflation of 38%, between April 2015 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the West Berkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 38% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 THE CRESCENT of £330,000 on 17th April 2015. For the value to have increased from £330,000 to £455,383 over the eight years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 12 THE CRESCENT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The April 2015 sale price of £330,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 12 THE CRESCENT has not materially changed since April 2015.
