The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 BIRCHMERE sales from August 1996 and August 2016 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 August 1996 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it falls to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.
