47 WEAR BAY CRESCENT 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 two 47 WEAR BAY CRESCENT sales from June 2001 and October 2010 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 2001 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the October 2010 sale, where it rises to 48% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% above the HPI.
