WENLOCK Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WENLOCK sales from December 2005 and October 2008 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 December 2005 sale was for 40% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% above the HPI over time, until the October 2008 sale, where it falls to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.
