4 HOLYROOD CLOSE 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 4 HOLYROOD CLOSE sales between July 1997 and May 2009 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 July 2005 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the May 2009 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 4 HOLYROOD CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 106.1%, between May 2009 and December 2024, 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 106.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 HOLYROOD CLOSE of £204,200 on 15th May 2009. For the value to have increased from £204,200 to £420,802 over the fourteen years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
