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 4 GRIMSTON AVENUE sales between July 1998 and July 2015 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 April 2012 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it rises to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.
