WILLOW 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 two WILLOW COTTAGE sales from April 1998 and September 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 April 1998 sale was for 61% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 61% above the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it falls to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.
