5 KINGSDOWN AVENUE 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 5 KINGSDOWN AVENUE sales between July 1997 and February 2003 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 August 2002 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the February 2003 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might 5 KINGSDOWN AVENUE be worth now?
