42 CITY ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 42 CITY ROAD sales from August 1999 and September 2018 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 August 1999 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it rises to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.
