5 BRILL 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 5 BRILL CLOSE sales between April 2001 and May 2011 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 2003 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the May 2011 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might 5 BRILL CLOSE be worth now?

5 BRILL CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £458,832.

This is based on house price inflation of 86.5%, between May 2011 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 86.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 BRILL CLOSE of £246,000 on 27th May 2011. For the value to have increased from £246,000 to £458,832 over the twelve years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 BRILL CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The May 2011 sale price of £246,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
