16 MERTHYR STREET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Cardiff local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 16 MERTHYR STREET sales between July 1996 and May 2023 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 March 2012 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might 16 MERTHYR STREET be worth now?
