24 LION STREET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swansea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 24 LION STREET sales between August 1997 and November 2016 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 December 2006 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the November 2016 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.
