35 SHEPHERDS LANE 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 three 35 SHEPHERDS LANE sales between October 2000 and May 2017 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 January 2003 sale was for 40% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% above the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it falls to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.

What might 35 SHEPHERDS LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 12.3%, between May 2017 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 12.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 35 SHEPHERDS LANE of £740,000 on 25th May 2017. For the value to have increased from £740,000 to £830,760 over the six years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
