3 BOTTISHAM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 3 BOTTISHAM CLOSE sales between May 1998 and March 2022 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 February 2020 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the March 2022 sale, where it falls to 50% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% below the HPI.

What might 3 BOTTISHAM CLOSE be worth now?

The 10.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 BOTTISHAM CLOSE of £225,000 on 15th March 2022. For the value to have increased from £225,000 to £249,612 over the three years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
