1237 CARMARTHEN ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Swansea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1237 CARMARTHEN ROAD sales from July 2015 and July 2019 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 2015 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it falls to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.

What might 1237 CARMARTHEN ROAD be worth now?
