40 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 40 DOWNLANDS ROAD sales from June 2002 and July 2012 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 June 2002 sale was for 36% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% above the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.
