2A FAIRACRES 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 2A FAIRACRES CLOSE sales between November 2008 and February 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 February 2013 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, which was also at 30% below the HPI.
