3 THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bexley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 3 THE CLOSE sales between January 1997 and March 2023 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 2019 sale was for 52% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% above the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it falls to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.
