3 GREENCROFT GARDENS 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 3 GREENCROFT GARDENS sales between September 2010 and September 2021 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 2018 sale was for 59% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% below the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it rises to 54% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 54% below the HPI.

What might 3 GREENCROFT GARDENS be worth now?
