27 FOREST HILL 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 27 FOREST HILL sales from May 1995 and June 2000 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 1995 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the June 2000 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.

What might 27 FOREST HILL be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 201.6%, between June 2000 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).

The 201.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 27 FOREST HILL of £116,000 on 23rd June 2000. For the value to have increased from £116,000 to £349,819 over the 25 years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 27 FOREST HILL has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The June 2000 sale price of £116,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
