3 OWSTON 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 3 OWSTON sales between February 1998 and August 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 October 2003 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
