7 BISHOPS GATE 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 7 BISHOPS GATE sales between November 2006 and January 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 December 2011 sale was for 68% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 68% above the HPI over time, until the January 2014 sale, where it rises to 381% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 381% above the HPI.

What might 7 BISHOPS GATE be worth now?
