1 DOVECOTE ROAD 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 four 1 DOVECOTE ROAD sales between June 2000 and August 2015 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 2012 sale was for 59% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% below the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it rises to 50% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% below the HPI.
