THE LODGE 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 three THE LODGE sales between March 1998 and December 2006 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 April 1999 sale was for 132% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 132% above the HPI over time, until the December 2006 sale, where it falls to 80% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 80% above the HPI.
