THE LAURELS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Caerphilly local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE LAURELS sales between August 2015 and March 2022 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 2021 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the March 2022 sale, which was also at 18% below the HPI.
