13 ELM WOOD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 13 ELM WOOD CLOSE sales between October 2000 and September 2006 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 March 2003 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the September 2006 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.
