3A SMITHAM BOTTOM LANE 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 3A SMITHAM BOTTOM LANE sales from May 2007 and July 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 May 2007 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it falls to 1% below the HPI.
