The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 438 LONDON ROAD sales between October 2005 and September 2017 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 December 2013 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, which was also at 6% above the HPI.
