21 LIDSTONE CLOSE 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 three 21 LIDSTONE CLOSE sales between February 1996 and April 2014 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 May 1999 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it rises to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 21 LIDSTONE CLOSE be worth now?
