6 THE RETREAT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Thanet local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 6 THE RETREAT sales from May 2001 and August 2012 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 May 2001 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, which was also at 2% below the HPI.
