The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 LONGMEAD CLOSE sales from May 2018 and March 2023 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the May 2018 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it rises to 28% below the HPI.
