5 WHITESTONE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 WHITESTONE CLOSE sales between July 1997 and April 2014 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 October 2006 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it falls to 44% below the HPI.
