FELL COTTAGE 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 two FELL COTTAGE sales from May 1999 and April 2005 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 May 1999 sale was for 63% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 63% below the HPI over time, until the April 2005 sale, where it falls to 64% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 64% below the HPI.
