7 CASTLEGATE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 7 CASTLEGATE DRIVE sales from September 1998 and November 2016 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 September 1998 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the November 2016 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.
