40 ELBA STREET 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 five 40 ELBA STREET sales between September 1997 and February 2025 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 October 2018 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the February 2025 sale, which was also at 20% below the HPI.

What might 40 ELBA STREET be worth now?
