38 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 three 38 THE MOUNT sales between October 2004 and March 2021 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 June 2012 sale was for 77% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 77% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 55% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 55% above the HPI.

What might 38 THE MOUNT be worth now?

38 THE MOUNT might now be worth an estimated £666,912.

This is based on house price inflation of 14%, between March 2021 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 14% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 38 THE MOUNT of £585,000 on 5th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £585,000 to £666,912 over the four years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 38 THE MOUNT has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £585,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
