4 BLUEBELL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Darlington local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 4 BLUEBELL CLOSE sales between February 2001 and September 2020 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 August 2015 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, which was also at 12% below the HPI.
