38 THE RUFFETTS 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 three 38 THE RUFFETTS sales between March 2003 and April 2024 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 2015 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the April 2024 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
