5 FRESHWATER 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 four 5 FRESHWATER CLOSE sales between April 1997 and May 2010 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 2006 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the May 2010 sale, where it rises to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.
