12 PENTLAND CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 12 PENTLAND CLOSE sales between January 1998 and February 2019 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 August 2007 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might 12 PENTLAND CLOSE be worth now?
