The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Croydon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 31A SMITHAM BOTTOM LANE sales from April 2007 and May 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 April 2007 sale was for 52% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% above the HPI over time, until the May 2009 sale, where it rises to 56% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% above the HPI.
