32 KITTIWAKE 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 32 KITTIWAKE CLOSE sales from October 2003 and March 2009 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 October 2003 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the March 2009 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 32 KITTIWAKE CLOSE be worth now?
