8 HARRINGTON 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 three 8 HARRINGTON CLOSE sales between May 1997 and September 2011 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 September 2001 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the September 2011 sale, where it rises to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.
