10 BIRCHLAND CLOSE 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 10 BIRCHLAND CLOSE sales from July 2017 and February 2021 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 July 2017 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it rises to 41% above the HPI.
