2 STARTFORTH CLOSE 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 2 STARTFORTH CLOSE sales from November 1998 and July 2005 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 November 1998 sale was for 51% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% above the HPI over time, until the July 2005 sale, where it falls to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.
