17 ELLESMERE 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 17 ELLESMERE CLOSE sales from December 2005 and October 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 December 2005 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it rises to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.
