The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 THORNEY CLOSE sales from April 1995 and May 2014 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the April 1995 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it rises to 21% below the HPI.
