12 HIGHDOWN HILL ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 12 HIGHDOWN HILL ROAD sales from July 1999 and February 2007 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the July 1999 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the February 2007 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI.
