28 HELMSLEY 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 28 HELMSLEY DRIVE sales between October 1998 and January 2015 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 March 2007 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might 28 HELMSLEY DRIVE be worth now?
