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 8 SWISS WAY sales between September 2003 and August 2018 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 October 2006 sale was for 61% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 61% above the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it falls to 60% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 60% above the HPI.
