4 MERLEY GATE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Northumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 4 MERLEY GATE sales between December 1996 and February 2014 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 June 2006 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the February 2014 sale, where it rises to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.
