The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Newport local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 38 FORGE CLOSE sales from March 2017 and November 2022 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 March 2017 sale was for 42% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% below the HPI over time, until the November 2022 sale, where it rises to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.
