255 SHINFIELD ROAD 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 255 SHINFIELD ROAD sales between March 2004 and April 2015 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 2010 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.
