2 THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cardiff local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 THE CLOSE sales between August 2000 and April 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 December 2021 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the April 2023 sale, where it rises to 26% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% above the HPI.
