79 ALEXANDRA ROAD 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 79 ALEXANDRA ROAD sales between July 1999 and August 2014 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 2011 sale was for 134% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 134% above the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it falls to 115% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 115% above the HPI.

What might 79 ALEXANDRA ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 48.2%, between August 2014 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 48.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 79 ALEXANDRA ROAD of £630,000 on 26th August 2014. For the value to have increased from £630,000 to £933,922 over the nine years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
