30 WATERSIDE DRIVE 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 30 WATERSIDE DRIVE sales from June 2001 and September 2009 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 June 2001 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the September 2009 sale, where it rises to 41% below the HPI.
