TREE TOPS 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 four TREE TOPS sales between February 1999 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 June 2021 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the January 2024 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.

What might TREE TOPS be worth now?

TREE TOPS might now be worth an estimated £655,296.

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 TREE TOPS of £650,000 on 16th January 2024. For the value to have increased from £650,000 to £655,296 over the eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of TREE TOPS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Croydon local authority area.
• The January 2024 sale price of £650,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of TREE TOPS has not materially changed since January 2024.
