47 RATBY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 47 RATBY CLOSE sales between June 1996 and February 2015 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 May 2005 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the February 2015 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 47 RATBY CLOSE be worth now?
