14 BARKER CLOSE 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 two 14 BARKER CLOSE sales from January 1999 and August 2020 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 January 1999 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the August 2020 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.
