9 DRAPER CLOSE 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 six 9 DRAPER CLOSE sales between August 1996 and May 2012 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 April 2007 sale was for 59% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% below the HPI over time, until the May 2012 sale, where it falls to 62% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 62% below the HPI.
