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 LOWER SANDS sales between June 1996 and June 2017 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 January 2005 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the June 2017 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.
