ARDEN 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 two ARDEN sales from October 2009 and March 2018 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 2009 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the March 2018 sale, which was also at 22% below the HPI.
