38 DOWNTON ROAD 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 38 DOWNTON ROAD sales from September 1995 and July 2024 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the September 1995 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the July 2024 sale, where it rises to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.
