20 WATERSIDE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 20 WATERSIDE DRIVE sales between December 1998 and May 2023 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 2018 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.
