18 WESTDENE CRESCENT 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 four 18 WESTDENE CRESCENT sales between June 1998 and December 2013 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 November 2011 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the December 2013 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 18 WESTDENE CRESCENT be worth now?

18 WESTDENE CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £598,759.

This is based on house price inflation of 61.8%, between December 2013 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 61.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 WESTDENE CRESCENT of £369,950 on 18th December 2013. For the value to have increased from £369,950 to £598,759 over the eleven years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 18 WESTDENE CRESCENT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The December 2013 sale price of £369,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
