88 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 88 FIRS LANE sales between August 1996 and October 2015 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 2013 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it rises to 42% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% below the HPI.
