22 GURNEY CLOSE 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 22 GURNEY CLOSE sales from September 2015 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 September 2015 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might 22 GURNEY CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 12.1%, between March 2021 and February 2025, 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 12.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 22 GURNEY CLOSE of £620,000 on 26th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £620,000 to £695,187 over the four years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 22 GURNEY CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £620,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
