LAMU 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 three LAMU sales between July 1995 and April 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 November 2011 sale was for 143% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 143% above the HPI over time, until the April 2017 sale, where it rises to 188% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 188% above the HPI.
