15 THE POST HORN 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 15 THE POST HORN sales from June 2014 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 2014 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, where it rises to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.

What might 15 THE POST HORN be worth now?
