7 MOUNT RIDGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Gateshead local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 7 MOUNT RIDGE sales from March 2007 and September 2010 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 March 2007 sale was for 57% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% above the HPI over time, until the September 2010 sale, where it rises to 63% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 63% above the HPI.
