1 THE VALE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Croydon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 THE VALE sales from February 1998 and December 2003 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 February 1998 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the December 2003 sale, where it rises to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 1 THE VALE be worth now?

1 THE VALE might now be worth an estimated £624,238.

This is based on house price inflation of 115.3%, between December 2003 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Croydon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 115.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 THE VALE of £290,000 on 19th December 2003. For the value to have increased from £290,000 to £624,238 over the 22 years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 THE VALE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Croydon local authority area.
• The December 2003 sale price of £290,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 THE VALE has not materially changed since December 2003.
