69 STUART CLOSE 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 69 STUART CLOSE sales from May 2007 and September 2014 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 May 2007 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the September 2014 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 69 STUART CLOSE be worth now?
