1 LANCHESTER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 LANCHESTER CLOSE sales from March 1998 and November 2010 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 1998 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the November 2010 sale, where it rises to 66% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 66% above the HPI.

What might 1 LANCHESTER CLOSE be worth now?
