34 BLACKSMITHS LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bromley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 34 BLACKSMITHS LANE sales from July 2003 and July 2007 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 July 2003 sale was for 68% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 68% below the HPI over time, until the July 2007 sale, where it rises to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 34 BLACKSMITHS LANE be worth now?
