3 VIKING CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Thanet local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 VIKING CLOSE sales from December 1999 and November 2020 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 December 1999 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.
