FOSTER HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four FOSTER HOUSE sales between January 1996 and August 2002 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 November 2001 sale was for 159% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 159% above the HPI over time, until the August 2002 sale, where it falls to 130% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 130% above the HPI.
