THE BEECHES 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 THE BEECHES sales from August 2000 and November 2017 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 2000 sale was for 69% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% above the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it rises to 114% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 114% above the HPI.
