42 SHIRLEY 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 42 SHIRLEY ROAD sales from April 1997 and December 2002 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 April 1997 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the December 2002 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.

What might 42 SHIRLEY ROAD be worth now?
