6 DEFENCE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 6 DEFENCE CLOSE sales from September 2007 and July 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 September 2007 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the July 2021 sale, where it rises to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might 6 DEFENCE CLOSE be worth now?
