LONGCROFT COTTAGE 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 LONGCROFT COTTAGE sales between June 1998 and February 2016 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 2009 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it rises to 61% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% above the HPI.
