234 DOVER ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 234 DOVER ROAD sales between August 2000 and May 2014 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 June 2010 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it rises to 23% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% above the HPI.
