6 MERLIN ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Havering local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 6 MERLIN ROAD sales between September 2006 and June 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 November 2009 sale was for 47% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.
