2 MERTHYR VALE 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 two 2 MERTHYR VALE sales from November 1999 and September 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 November 1999 sale was for 51% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% above the HPI over time, until the September 2014 sale, where it rises to 67% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 67% above the HPI.
