The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 31 THE BIRCHWOODS sales from May 1997 and December 2017 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the May 1997 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it rises to 20% above the HPI.
