THE FIRS 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 THE FIRS sales between October 2005 and February 2017 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 October 2006 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it rises to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.
