UPPER HOUSE 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 UPPER HOUSE sales from April 2008 and June 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 April 2008 sale was for 84% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 84% above the HPI over time, until the June 2018 sale, where it falls to 55% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 55% above the HPI.
