The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 ORKNEY CLOSE sales between November 2013 and November 2021 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 June 2017 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the November 2021 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI.
