20 THE 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 20 THE CLOSE sales from September 2014 and September 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 September 2014 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.
