14 YARNTON CLOSE 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 14 YARNTON CLOSE sales from November 2004 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 November 2004 sale was for 21% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% above the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it falls to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.

What might 14 YARNTON CLOSE be worth now?
