16 TORRINGTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sunderland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 TORRINGTON CLOSE sales from September 1998 and June 2014 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 September 1998 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.
