7 DAMSON DRIVE 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 three 7 DAMSON DRIVE sales between September 2006 and October 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 November 2009 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might 7 DAMSON DRIVE be worth now?
