The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 7 BIRKDALE CLOSE sales between March 2000 and November 2019 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 March 2007 sale was for 91% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 91% above the HPI over time, until the November 2019 sale, where it falls to 37% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% above the HPI.
