2 LIBRARY LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Neath Port Talbot local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 LIBRARY LANE sales between September 1996 and October 2014 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 2000 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it falls to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.
