19 MORLAIS 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 four 19 MORLAIS sales between December 1995 and September 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 May 2003 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might 19 MORLAIS be worth now?

19 MORLAIS might now be worth an estimated £403,757.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.8%, between September 2019 and December 2024, 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 18.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 19 MORLAIS of £340,000 on 30th September 2019. For the value to have increased from £340,000 to £403,757 over the four years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 19 MORLAIS has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The September 2019 sale price of £340,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 19 MORLAIS has not materially changed since September 2019.
