161 LAKE ROAD WEST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cardiff local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 161 LAKE ROAD WEST sales between November 2004 and September 2010 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 February 2008 sale was for 255% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 255% above the HPI over time, until the September 2010 sale, where it rises to 298% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 298% above the HPI.

What might 161 LAKE ROAD WEST be worth now?
