FIG TREE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three FIG TREE COTTAGE sales between April 2015 and August 2023 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 May 2022 sale was for 37% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% above the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it falls to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.

What might FIG TREE COTTAGE be worth now?

FIG TREE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £500,868.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.5%, between August 2023 and December 2024, for semi-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 2.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FIG TREE COTTAGE of £488,500 on 30th August 2023. For the value to have increased from £488,500 to £500,868 over the eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FIG TREE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The August 2023 sale price of £488,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FIG TREE COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2023.
