SPRINGWELL HOLLOW 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 SPRINGWELL HOLLOW sales from May 2005 and May 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 May 2005 sale was for 41% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% above the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it rises to 136% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 136% above the HPI.
