READING ROOM COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four READING ROOM COTTAGE sales between February 1999 and March 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 May 2003 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.
