4 SCHOLARS CLOSE 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 two 4 SCHOLARS CLOSE sales from January 2005 and September 2023 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 January 2005 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the September 2023 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
