488 WICKHAM 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 488 WICKHAM ROAD sales from July 2004 and March 2020 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 2004 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it rises to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.
