28 THE 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 28 THE CLOSE sales from July 1997 and November 2002 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 1997 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the November 2002 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.
