62 WATER 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 three 62 WATER ROAD sales between December 2001 and July 2012 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 2005 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it falls to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.
