17 HERON ISLAND 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 three 17 HERON ISLAND sales between July 1995 and December 2006 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 June 2001 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the December 2006 sale, where it falls to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.
