8 CASTLE STREET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Neath Port Talbot local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 CASTLE STREET sales from May 2004 and May 2024 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 May 2004 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the May 2024 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.
