4 MERLIN COURT 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 4 MERLIN COURT sales between June 2006 and December 2022 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 November 2020 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the December 2022 sale, where it rises to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
