7 ANSTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 7 ANSTON CLOSE sales between May 1998 and August 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 February 2012 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it falls to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.

What might 7 ANSTON CLOSE be worth now?
