HERON HOUSE 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 HERON HOUSE sales from November 2013 and October 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 2013 sale was for 88% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 88% above the HPI over time, until the October 2021 sale, where it rises to 95% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 95% above the HPI.
