8 BIRKDALE 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 three 8 BIRKDALE CLOSE sales between May 1999 and May 2021 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 November 2003 sale was for 47% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% above the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it rises to 66% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 66% above the HPI.
