2 VULCAN 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 2 VULCAN CLOSE sales from July 2015 and July 2016 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 July 2015 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it rises to 170% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 170% above the HPI.

What might 2 VULCAN CLOSE be worth now?

2 VULCAN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £1,493,016.

This is based on house price inflation of 29.8%, between July 2016 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Canterbury local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 29.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 VULCAN CLOSE of £1,150,000 on 8th July 2016. For the value to have increased from £1,150,000 to £1,493,016 over the seven years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
