12 WYCHCOTES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 12 WYCHCOTES sales from July 1998 and March 2021 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 July 1998 sale was for 56% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.

What might 12 WYCHCOTES be worth now?

12 WYCHCOTES might now be worth an estimated £921,399.

This is based on house price inflation of 13.1%, between March 2021 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Reading local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 13.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 WYCHCOTES of £815,000 on 23rd March 2021. For the value to have increased from £815,000 to £921,399 over the two years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 12 WYCHCOTES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £815,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 12 WYCHCOTES has not materially changed since March 2021.
