The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Thanet local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 159 BOTANY ROAD sales from September 2004 and November 2012 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 2004 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the November 2012 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
159 BOTANY ROAD might now be worth an estimated £545,167.
