THE POPLARS 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 three THE POPLARS sales between March 2017 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 April 2019 sale was for 325% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 325% above the HPI over time, until the March 2022 sale, where it falls to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.
