9 LAUD CLOSE 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 three 9 LAUD CLOSE sales between December 1996 and July 2005 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 July 2001 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the July 2005 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 9 LAUD CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 95.7%, between July 2005 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 95.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 9 LAUD CLOSE of £300,000 on 25th July 2005. For the value to have increased from £300,000 to £587,147 over the eighteen years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
