11 FORGE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 11 FORGE CLOSE sales from December 2023 and May 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 December 2023 sale was for 27% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% above the HPI over time, until the May 2025 sale, where it falls to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.
