SILVER BIRCHES 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 SILVER BIRCHES sales from October 2001 and September 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 October 2001 sale was for 128% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 128% above the HPI over time, until the September 2009 sale, where it rises to 141% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 141% above the HPI.
