34 WEST DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bridgend local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 34 WEST DRIVE sales from May 1999 and December 2001 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 1999 sale was for 139% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 139% above the HPI over time, until the December 2001 sale, where it rises to 214% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 214% above the HPI.
