HOLLY HOUSE 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 HOLLY HOUSE sales from June 2004 and January 2020 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 2004 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it rises to 50% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% above the HPI.
