378 GOSBROOK ROAD 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 four 378 GOSBROOK ROAD sales between January 1997 and February 2018 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 November 2004 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the February 2018 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.

What might 378 GOSBROOK ROAD be worth now?

378 GOSBROOK ROAD might now be worth an estimated £468,993.

This is based on house price inflation of 13%, between February 2018 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 13% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 378 GOSBROOK ROAD of £415,000 on 23rd February 2018. For the value to have increased from £415,000 to £468,993 over the five years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 378 GOSBROOK ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The February 2018 sale price of £415,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
