2 ARGYLE STREET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 ARGYLE STREET sales between April 1998 and September 2004 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 2001 sale was for 57% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% above the HPI over time, until the September 2004 sale, where it falls to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.
