6 SWAN PLACE 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 6 SWAN PLACE sales from November 2001 and December 2017 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 November 2001 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it falls to 52% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% below the HPI.
