WHICKHAM HILL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Gateshead local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WHICKHAM HILL COTTAGE sales from June 1999 and July 2001 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 June 1999 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the July 2001 sale, where it rises to 29% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% above the HPI.

What might WHICKHAM HILL COTTAGE be worth now?
