18 MESSENGER ROAD 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 18 MESSENGER ROAD sales from August 2015 and March 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 August 2015 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.
