44 FIRS LANE 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 four 44 FIRS LANE sales between April 1997 and March 2007 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 June 2003 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the March 2007 sale, which was also at 30% below the HPI.
