398 GOSBROOK ROAD 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 four 398 GOSBROOK ROAD sales between March 1996 and June 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 July 2002 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the June 2004 sale, where it rises to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.

What might 398 GOSBROOK ROAD be worth now?
