25 GALSWORTHY DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 25 GALSWORTHY DRIVE sales between October 1999 and February 2023 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 March 2013 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, where it rises to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.
