5 LEIGHFIELD DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sunderland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 LEIGHFIELD DRIVE sales from December 2019 and August 2022 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the December 2019 sale was for 127% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 127% above the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it falls to 119% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 119% above the HPI.
