2 MAY AVENUE 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 2 MAY AVENUE sales from March 1997 and June 2012 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 March 1997 sale was for 54% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% below the HPI over time, until the June 2012 sale, where it falls to 58% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 58% below the HPI.

What might 2 MAY AVENUE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 93.1%, between June 2012 and July 2025, for detached houses, in the Bromley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 93.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 MAY AVENUE of £240,000 on 1st June 2012. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £463,494 over the twelve years and eleven months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The June 2012 sale price of £240,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 MAY AVENUE has not materially changed since June 2012.
