3 MODBURY GARDENS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 MODBURY GARDENS sales between October 1999 and March 2020 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 January 2020 sale was for 54% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% below the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it rises to 48% below the HPI.
