3 ENCOMBE 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 three 3 ENCOMBE sales between September 1997 and March 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 August 2000 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, which was also at 6% above the HPI.
