23 MOUNT CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 23 MOUNT CLOSE sales between February 2003 and August 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 February 2018 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the August 2020 sale, where it rises to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.
