The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 HERMITS CLOSE sales from October 1996 and September 2018 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 1996 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it rises to 15% below the HPI.
