18 DOWNLANDS ROAD 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 18 DOWNLANDS ROAD sales from January 2004 and June 2021 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 January 2004 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.
