3 BENSON LANE 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 four 3 BENSON LANE sales between May 2001 and January 2005 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 January 2004 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the January 2005 sale, where it rises to 41% below the HPI.
