HIGH VIEW 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 two HIGH VIEW sales from December 2009 and August 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 December 2009 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
