5 ORCHARD 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 5 ORCHARD CLOSE sales from May 2017 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 May 2017 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it rises to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.
