3 FRIETH 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 four 3 FRIETH CLOSE sales between October 1995 and July 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 September 2000 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it rises to 44% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% below the HPI.

What might 3 FRIETH CLOSE be worth now?

3 FRIETH CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £281,527.

This is based on house price inflation of 8.7%, between July 2022 and February 2025, for semi-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 8.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 FRIETH CLOSE of £259,000 on 4th July 2022. For the value to have increased from £259,000 to £281,527 over the three years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 FRIETH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wokingham local authority area.
• The July 2022 sale price of £259,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
