BRAESIDE 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 BRAESIDE sales from September 2021 and January 2024 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 2021 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the January 2024 sale, where it falls to 38% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% below the HPI.

What might BRAESIDE be worth now?

BRAESIDE might now be worth an estimated £529,278.

This is based on house price inflation of 0.8%, between January 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Croydon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BRAESIDE of £525,000 on 16th January 2024. For the value to have increased from £525,000 to £529,278 over the eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRAESIDE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Croydon local authority area.
• The January 2024 sale price of £525,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BRAESIDE has not materially changed since January 2024.
