ELMET 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 ELMET COTTAGE sales from April 2002 and August 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 April 2002 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it rises to 48% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% above the HPI.
