8 SOUTH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 8 SOUTH CLOSE sales between August 1995 and August 2017 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 2011 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.
