THE OLD POST OFFICE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Windsor and Maidenhead local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE OLD POST OFFICE sales from October 2019 and September 2022 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 2019 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it rises to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.
