LANGDALE 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 two LANGDALE sales from September 2016 and July 2021 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 September 2016 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the July 2021 sale, where it rises to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.
