68 HIGHER DRIVE 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 68 HIGHER DRIVE sales between June 1998 and September 2018 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 February 2000 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it falls to 38% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% below the HPI.
