17 ALMA PLACE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Croydon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 17 ALMA PLACE sales between February 2003 and July 2009 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 November 2006 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the July 2009 sale, where it rises to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.

What might 17 ALMA PLACE be worth now?

17 ALMA PLACE might now be worth an estimated £369,034.

This is based on house price inflation of 117.1%, between July 2009 and February 2025, for semi-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 117.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 ALMA PLACE of £170,000 on 3rd July 2009. For the value to have increased from £170,000 to £369,034 over the sixteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 17 ALMA PLACE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Croydon local authority area.
• The July 2009 sale price of £170,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 17 ALMA PLACE has not materially changed since July 2009.
