PALM TREE COTTAGE 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 three PALM TREE COTTAGE sales between April 2008 and September 2021 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 November 2013 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it falls to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.
