SOJO COTTAGE 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 SOJO COTTAGE sales from March 2019 and February 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 March 2019 sale was for 50% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% below the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it rises to 41% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% above the HPI.
