Probate valuation · Newbury
Probate needs the home’s value on the date of death, not today’s price. In Newbury, average prices have moved 14.6% up over five years, so the date matters.





The short answer
Date of death
The average home today is £401,830. If the death was some time ago, the value the estate needs is the one from then.

|---|---|---|
| 1 year ago (Aug 2025) | £403,505 | -0.4% |
| 3 years ago (Aug 2023) | £388,464 | +3.4% |
