The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bexley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 488 BLACKFEN ROAD sales from July 2001 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 July 2001 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI.
