189 TOWNHILL 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 189 TOWNHILL ROAD sales from January 1998 and June 2009 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the January 1998 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the June 2009 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.
