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 26 WEAR BAY CRESCENT sales from February 2014 and July 2014 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 February 2014 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.
