1 OWSTON 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 four 1 OWSTON sales between July 1998 and August 2012 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 2006 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.
