3 GAINSBOROUGH CLOSE 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 two 3 GAINSBOROUGH CLOSE sales from June 2001 and December 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 June 2001 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the December 2014 sale, where it rises to 81% above the HPI.
