7 THE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bexley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 7 THE DRIVE sales between July 1999 and June 2015 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 September 2005 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the June 2015 sale, where it falls to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.
