2 MOUNTAIN VIEW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Caerphilly local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 MOUNTAIN VIEW sales from May 1996 and September 2018 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 May 1996 sale was for 52% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% below the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it rises to 49% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% below the HPI.
