79 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 two 79 HIGHER DRIVE sales from December 2011 and July 2023 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 December 2011 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it falls to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.
