8 DUNSCAR Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sunderland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 8 DUNSCAR sales between November 2002 and January 2022 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 October 2016 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, where it rises to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.
