The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 70 EASTERN AVENUE sales between March 2008 and January 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 December 2018 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, where it rises to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.
