17 SOUTER 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 17 SOUTER DRIVE sales between March 2006 and May 2021 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 2019 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it falls to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.
