The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 THE CRESCENT sales from February 2017 and February 2021 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 February 2017 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it rises to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.
