SCHOOL 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 SCHOOL HOUSE sales from December 2001 and November 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 December 2001 sale was for 102% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 102% above the HPI over time, until the November 2021 sale, where it falls to 86% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 86% above the HPI.
