42 PALMERSTONE ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 42 PALMERSTONE ROAD sales between March 1995 and April 2015 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 1999 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, which was also at 24% below the HPI.

What might 42 PALMERSTONE ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 41.9%, between April 2015 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wokingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 41.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 42 PALMERSTONE ROAD of £410,000 on 29th April 2015. For the value to have increased from £410,000 to £581,713 over the eight years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
