3 SHIPTON 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 3 SHIPTON CLOSE sales from October 2006 and April 2010 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 2006 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the April 2010 sale, where it rises to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
