The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 28 WANTAGE ROAD sales between June 1995 and May 2003 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 September 2001 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the May 2003 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI.
