57 KINGSWAY 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 57 KINGSWAY sales from February 1999 and April 2004 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 February 1999 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the April 2004 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 57 KINGSWAY be worth now?

57 KINGSWAY might now be worth an estimated £419,208.

This is based on house price inflation of 120.7%, between April 2004 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 120.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 57 KINGSWAY of £189,950 on 14th April 2004. For the value to have increased from £189,950 to £419,208 over the nineteen years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 57 KINGSWAY has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The April 2004 sale price of £189,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 57 KINGSWAY has not materially changed since April 2004.
