BRACKENS 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 four BRACKENS sales between December 2001 and August 2016 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 2010 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.

What might BRACKENS be worth now?

BRACKENS might now be worth an estimated £421,956.

This is based on house price inflation of 20.6%, between August 2016 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 20.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BRACKENS of £350,000 on 10th August 2016. For the value to have increased from £350,000 to £421,956 over the seven years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRACKENS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The August 2016 sale price of £350,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BRACKENS has not materially changed since August 2016.
