WALDEN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Vale of Glamorgan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WALDEN sales from May 2004 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 May 2004 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the June 2017 sale, where it rises to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.
