THE BUTTERY 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 five THE BUTTERY sales between September 1998 and November 2019 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 2005 sale was for 108% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 108% above the HPI over time, until the November 2019 sale, where it falls to 80% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 80% above the HPI.
