153A DOWNS ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 153A DOWNS ROAD sales between May 2005 and June 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 June 2019 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.
