THE 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 five THE COTTAGE sales between August 1997 and September 2022 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 January 2005 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it falls to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.
