Commenting on the data, Ruban Selvanayagam co-founder of Property Solvers, who are behind the research said: “To keep the data less skewed, we only ranked the streets that had over three sales.”
“It’s therefore worth noting that, in recent years, a property on Groves Avenue (SA3) sold for £2,470,000 and, at the other end of the market, there were properties that sold for £42,000 and under on Crymlyn Road (SA7), Bronwydd (SA7) and Trewyddfa Road (SA7),” he concludes.
