8 HIGHLANDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 HIGHLANDS sales from October 2003 and August 2017 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 October 2003 sale was for 77% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 77% above the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it falls to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.

What might 8 HIGHLANDS be worth now?

8 HIGHLANDS might now be worth an estimated £1,056,487.

This is based on house price inflation of 18%, between August 2017 and December 2024, for 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 18% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 HIGHLANDS of £895,000 on 31st August 2017. For the value to have increased from £895,000 to £1,056,487 over the six years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 HIGHLANDS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The August 2017 sale price of £895,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 8 HIGHLANDS has not materially changed since August 2017.
