40 DOUGLAS AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 40 DOUGLAS AVENUE sales between March 1997 and July 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 June 2013 sale was for 40% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% above the HPI over time, until the July 2020 sale, where it rises to 50% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% above the HPI.

What might 40 DOUGLAS AVENUE be worth now?
