3 ACADEMY GARDENS 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 3 ACADEMY GARDENS sales from March 2003 and December 2012 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the March 2003 sale was for 69% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% above the HPI over time, until the December 2012 sale, where it rises to 86% above the HPI.
