4 GARTH ROAD 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 4 GARTH ROAD sales from May 2004 and July 2014 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 May 2004 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, which was also at 5% below the HPI.

What might 4 GARTH ROAD be worth now?
