The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lewisham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 8 BENSON ROAD sales between October 1997 and November 2013 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 2007 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the November 2013 sale, where it rises to 92% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 92% above the HPI.
