8 SHEPHERDS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bromley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 SHEPHERDS CLOSE sales from October 1995 and October 1997 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 October 1995 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the October 1997 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
