42A ERLEIGH ROAD 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 two 42A ERLEIGH ROAD sales from June 1995 and April 2002 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 1995 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the April 2002 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might 42A ERLEIGH ROAD be worth now?

42A ERLEIGH ROAD might now be worth an estimated £427,404.

This is based on house price inflation of 155.2%, between April 2002 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 155.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 42A ERLEIGH ROAD of £167,500 on 8th April 2002. For the value to have increased from £167,500 to £427,404 over the 23 years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 42A ERLEIGH ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The April 2002 sale price of £167,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
