The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six 79 NORTHLEA ROAD sales between May 1997 and September 2024 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 June 2008 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the September 2024 sale, where it rises to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.
