7 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 7 MERLIN ROAD sales between May 1995 and February 2018 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 1996 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the February 2018 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
