296 BENHAM HILL 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 three 296 BENHAM HILL sales between May 1998 and March 2017 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 April 2012 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the March 2017 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
