OLD READING ROOM COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three OLD READING ROOM COTTAGE sales between February 2003 and November 2009 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 March 2004 sale was for 106% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 106% above the HPI over time, until the November 2009 sale, where it rises to 116% above the HPI.
