9 GURNEY DRIVE 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 9 GURNEY DRIVE sales from March 2002 and May 2021 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 March 2002 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 9 GURNEY DRIVE be worth now?
