79 FORREST ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Cardiff local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 79 FORREST ROAD sales between March 2004 and October 2013 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 June 2009 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the October 2013 sale, where it rises to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.
