1 MOUNT RIDGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Gateshead local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 MOUNT RIDGE sales between November 2006 and July 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 August 2019 sale was for 66% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 66% above the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it falls to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.
