1 MAY STREET 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 1 MAY STREET sales from July 1998 and May 2003 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 July 1998 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the May 2003 sale, where it rises to 89% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 89% above the HPI.
