MERRYN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Croydon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MERRYN sales from April 1997 and August 2004 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 April 1997 sale was for 201% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 201% above the HPI over time, until the August 2004 sale, where it rises to 462% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 462% above the HPI.
