24 BEAUCHIEF CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 24 BEAUCHIEF CLOSE sales between June 1996 and October 2023 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 March 2000 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 24 BEAUCHIEF CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 1.5%, between October 2023 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wokingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 24 BEAUCHIEF CLOSE of £500,000 on 4th October 2023. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £507,488 over the ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
