197 BIRKBECK ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bromley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 197 BIRKBECK ROAD sales between January 1997 and May 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 February 2004 sale was for 45% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% below the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI.
