5 ALBANY GARDENS 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 three 5 ALBANY GARDENS sales between October 2006 and November 2022 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 July 2012 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the November 2022 sale, where it falls to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.
