639 GOWER ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swansea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 639 GOWER ROAD sales between December 2001 and June 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 March 2012 sale was for 133% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 133% above the HPI over time, until the June 2017 sale, where it rises to 174% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 174% above the HPI.
