38 THORNLEY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 38 THORNLEY CLOSE sales between January 2000 and November 2017 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 2017 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 38 THORNLEY CLOSE be worth now?
