The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swansea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 12 BENBOW CLOSE sales from June 2021 and July 2022 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the June 2021 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it rises to 58% above the HPI.
