The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 72 MAYFIELD DRIVE sales between July 2001 and October 2015 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 September 2010 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it rises to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.
72 MAYFIELD DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £491,690.
This is based on house price inflation of 29.4%, between October 2015 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 29.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 72 MAYFIELD DRIVE of £380,000 on 7th October 2015. For the value to have increased from £380,000 to £491,690 over the eight years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
