DOWER HOUSE 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 two DOWER HOUSE sales from January 2007 and September 2016 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 January 2007 sale was for 426% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 426% above the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it falls to 384% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 384% above the HPI.
