The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 SOUTER DRIVE sales between February 2006 and December 2023 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 April 2023 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the December 2023 sale, where it falls to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.
