5 PINE TREE 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 5 PINE TREE CLOSE sales from May 2007 and March 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 May 2007 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the March 2010 sale, where it falls to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.
