The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Croydon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 159 VALLEY ROAD sales between September 2004 and April 2016 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 March 2015 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the April 2016 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
159 VALLEY ROAD might now be worth an estimated £628,851.
