The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swansea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 229 GOWER ROAD sales from September 2000 and August 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 September 2000 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it rises to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.
