15 OSPREY 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 two 15 OSPREY CLOSE sales from September 2001 and November 2010 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 September 2001 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the November 2010 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 15 OSPREY CLOSE be worth now?
