THE SWALLOWS 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 THE SWALLOWS sales from November 2004 and December 2011 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 2004 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the December 2011 sale, where it rises to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.
