HIGHMEAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HIGHMEAD sales from March 2002 and July 2013 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 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it rises to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might HIGHMEAD be worth now?

HIGHMEAD might now be worth an estimated £801,437.

This is based on house price inflation of 74.2%, between July 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wokingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 74.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGHMEAD of £460,000 on 25th July 2013. For the value to have increased from £460,000 to £801,437 over the twelve years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGHMEAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wokingham local authority area.
• The July 2013 sale price of £460,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGHMEAD has not materially changed since July 2013.
