10 DARK LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 10 DARK LANE sales between July 1997 and August 2013 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 December 2004 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the August 2013 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.
