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 7 LOWER SANDS sales between October 1995 and December 2009 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 November 1997 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the December 2009 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.
