THE DAIRY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE DAIRY sales from August 2001 and May 2012 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 2001 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the May 2012 sale, where it rises to 254% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 254% above the HPI.

What might THE DAIRY be worth now?

THE DAIRY might now be worth an estimated £2,468,997.

This is based on house price inflation of 73.1%, between May 2012 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Reading local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 73.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE DAIRY of £1,426,500 on 2nd May 2012. For the value to have increased from £1,426,500 to £2,468,997 over the eleven years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE DAIRY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The May 2012 sale price of £1,426,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE DAIRY has not materially changed since May 2012.
