1 MERTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bracknell Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 MERTON CLOSE sales between October 1999 and November 2009 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 2005 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the November 2009 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
