7 SOPWITH CLOSE 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 7 SOPWITH CLOSE sales between October 1999 and September 2016 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 2003 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 7 SOPWITH CLOSE be worth now?

7 SOPWITH CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £607,539.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.5%, between September 2016 and February 2025, 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 21.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 SOPWITH CLOSE of £500,000 on 30th September 2016. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £607,539 over the nine years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

  • The value of 7 SOPWITH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wokingham local authority area.
  • The September 2016 sale price of £500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
  • The size, condition, and specification of 7 SOPWITH CLOSE has not materially changed since September 2016.
Disclaimer: Please note that this is a theoretical estimate based on assumptions which may or may not be correct. It should not be relied on for any purpose.
