19 LOVATT CLOSE 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 four 19 LOVATT CLOSE sales between March 1997 and July 2014 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 2008 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI.
