MERRYFOLD 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 MERRYFOLD sales from October 2002 and October 2020 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 2002 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it rises to 61% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% above the HPI.
