2 ARGYLE 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 2 ARGYLE ROAD sales between May 1997 and May 2022 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 February 2004 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it falls to 53% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% below the HPI.
