25 APPLE 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 four 25 APPLE CLOSE sales between August 1996 and December 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 August 2012 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it rises to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.
