THE ACORNS 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 four THE ACORNS sales between February 2002 and November 2012 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 February 2010 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the November 2012 sale, where it falls to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.
