19 LANCASTER 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 four 19 LANCASTER CLOSE sales between March 2000 and October 2009 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 October 2005 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the October 2009 sale, where it rises to 36% above the HPI.
