147 WAVERLEY ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 147 WAVERLEY ROAD sales between April 1997 and July 2019 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 December 2000 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might 147 WAVERLEY ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 18.2%, between July 2019 and February 2025, for semi-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 18.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 147 WAVERLEY ROAD of £257,000 on 26th July 2019. For the value to have increased from £257,000 to £303,752 over the six years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
