The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 71 COCKNEY HILL sales between August 1997 and June 2015 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 2004 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the June 2015 sale, where it rises to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.
71 COCKNEY HILL might now be worth an estimated £605,948.
