52 GOLDSMID ROAD 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 52 GOLDSMID ROAD sales from February 1995 and March 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 February 1995 sale was for 54% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% below the HPI over time, until the March 2001 sale, where it rises to 53% below the HPI.
