168 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 two 168 WAVERLEY ROAD sales from February 2008 and June 2012 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 February 2008 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the June 2012 sale, where it rises to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.

This is based on house price inflation of 77.6%, between June 2012 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).
