THE BEECHES 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 THE BEECHES sales between August 2000 and October 2014 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 June 2008 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it falls to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.
