5 POST HORN PLACE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 POST HORN PLACE sales from May 2000 and October 2018 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 May 2000 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might 5 POST HORN PLACE be worth now?

5 POST HORN PLACE might now be worth an estimated £410,008.

This is based on house price inflation of 19.7%, between October 2018 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the West Berkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 19.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 POST HORN PLACE of £342,500 on 12th October 2018. For the value to have increased from £342,500 to £410,008 over the seven years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 POST HORN PLACE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The October 2018 sale price of £342,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
