29 GROVE HILL 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 29 GROVE HILL sales from June 2009 and November 2015 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 June 2009 sale was for 51% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% below the HPI over time, until the November 2015 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might 29 GROVE HILL be worth now?

29 GROVE HILL might now be worth an estimated £660,845.

This is based on house price inflation of 22.4%, between November 2015 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 22.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 29 GROVE HILL of £540,000 on 24th November 2015. For the value to have increased from £540,000 to £660,845 over the eight years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 29 GROVE HILL has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The November 2015 sale price of £540,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 29 GROVE HILL has not materially changed since November 2015.
