8 BARN OWL WAY 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 8 BARN OWL WAY sales from June 2006 and November 2016 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 June 2006 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the November 2016 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 8 BARN OWL WAY be worth now?
