1 BEES COTTAGE 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 1 BEES COTTAGE sales between December 1999 and January 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 June 2004 sale was for 101% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 101% above the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, where it falls to 99% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 99% above the HPI.
