WODEN LAW 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 five WODEN LAW sales between March 2000 and November 2021 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 2014 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the November 2021 sale, where it rises to 74% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 74% above the HPI.

What might WODEN LAW be worth now?

WODEN LAW might now be worth an estimated £1,493,974.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.4%, between November 2021 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 0.4% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for WODEN LAW of £1,500,000 on 12th November 2021. For the value to have decreased from £1,500,000 to £1,493,974 over the four years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WODEN LAW has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Croydon local authority area.
• The November 2021 sale price of £1,500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WODEN LAW has not materially changed since November 2021.
