The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 185 LONG LANE sales between August 1998 and September 2022 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 2007 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it rises to 94% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 94% above the HPI.
