POOL COURT 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 POOL COURT sales from August 2016 and November 2017 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 August 2016 sale was for 176% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 176% above the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it rises to 249% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 249% above the HPI.

What might POOL COURT be worth now?

POOL COURT might now be worth an estimated £2,682,826.

This is based on house price inflation of 19.2%, between November 2017 and December 2024, 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 19.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for POOL COURT of £2,250,000 on 17th November 2017. For the value to have increased from £2,250,000 to £2,682,826 over the six years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of POOL COURT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wokingham local authority area.
• The November 2017 sale price of £2,250,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of POOL COURT has not materially changed since November 2017.
