55 LAKIN DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Vale of Glamorgan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 55 LAKIN DRIVE sales between January 2001 and November 2017 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 October 2013 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.
