98 BLENHEIM ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 98 BLENHEIM ROAD sales from September 1995 and October 2011 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 1995 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the October 2011 sale, where it rises to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.

What might 98 BLENHEIM ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 76%, between October 2011 and December 2024, for 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 76% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 98 BLENHEIM ROAD of £590,000 on 14th October 2011. For the value to have increased from £590,000 to £1,038,594 over the twelve years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
