21 ORCHARD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 21 ORCHARD CLOSE sales from July 2004 and June 2021 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 July 2004 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.
