THE LINKS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Merthyr Tydfil local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE LINKS sales from December 1995 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 December 1995 sale was for 27% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% above the HPI over time, until the June 2017 sale, where it rises to 134% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 134% above the HPI.
