179 CANTERBURY 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 two 179 CANTERBURY ROAD sales from August 1998 and January 2008 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 August 1998 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the January 2008 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

This is based on house price inflation of 64%, between January 2008 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 64% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 179 CANTERBURY ROAD of £249,995 on 11th January 2008. For the value to have increased from £249,995 to £409,950 over the sixteen years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
