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 40 DOWNS ROAD sales from October 1998 and June 2020 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the October 1998 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the June 2020 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI.
