The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 LONGTYE DRIVE sales between July 1996 and July 2007 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the November 2000 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the July 2007 sale, where it falls to 28% above the HPI.
