12 LOWTHER DRIVE 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 12 LOWTHER DRIVE sales between June 1998 and May 2018 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 November 2007 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, where it rises to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.
