The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Northumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 51 MERLEY GATE sales from November 2006 and April 2015 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 2006 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, where it rises to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.
