24 LONG REACH 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 24 LONG REACH CLOSE sales from November 2017 and September 2018 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 November 2017 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
