30 THE MOUNT 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 30 THE MOUNT sales from September 1997 and April 2005 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 1997 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the April 2005 sale, where it falls to 35% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% above the HPI.

What might 30 THE MOUNT be worth now?

30 THE MOUNT might now be worth an estimated £581,498.

This is based on house price inflation of 104%, between April 2005 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 104% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 30 THE MOUNT of £285,000 on 6th April 2005. For the value to have increased from £285,000 to £581,498 over the twenty years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 30 THE MOUNT has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The April 2005 sale price of £285,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 30 THE MOUNT has not materially changed since April 2005.
