3 ORCHARD DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cardiff local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 ORCHARD DRIVE sales from January 1998 and September 2013 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 January 1998 sale was for 64% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 64% above the HPI over time, until the September 2013 sale, where it falls to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might 3 ORCHARD DRIVE be worth now?
