5 SPARROW CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 SPARROW CLOSE sales from August 1995 and February 2001 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 August 1995 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the February 2001 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.
