HYWAYS 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 HYWAYS sales from December 1997 and March 2000 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 December 1997 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the March 2000 sale, where it falls to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might HYWAYS be worth now?

HYWAYS might now be worth an estimated £838,219.

This is based on house price inflation of 203.7%, between March 2000 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 203.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HYWAYS of £276,000 on 29th March 2000. For the value to have increased from £276,000 to £838,219 over the 25 years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HYWAYS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wokingham local authority area.
• The March 2000 sale price of £276,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HYWAYS has not materially changed since March 2000.
