39 BARNSDALE ROAD 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 five 39 BARNSDALE ROAD sales between June 1995 and April 2008 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 September 2001 sale was for 69% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% below the HPI over time, until the April 2008 sale, where it rises to 61% below the HPI.
