6 OCEAN 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 6 OCEAN CLOSE sales from July 2015 and April 2017 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 July 2015 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the April 2017 sale, where it rises to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.
