HEATH COTTAGE 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 three HEATH COTTAGE sales between March 2003 and December 2013 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 May 2007 sale was for 54% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% above the HPI over time, until the December 2013 sale, where it rises to 88% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 88% above the HPI.
