7 RIVER GARDENS 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 two 7 RIVER GARDENS sales from October 1995 and November 2022 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 October 1995 sale was for 74% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 74% above the HPI over time, until the November 2022 sale, where it falls to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.
