PROSPECT COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two PROSPECT COTTAGE sales from August 2004 and July 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 August 2004 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the July 2011 sale, where it rises to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.
