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 MAJORS sales between January 1997 and August 2012 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 September 2001 sale was for 60% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 60% above the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it falls to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.
