WHITBURN HOUSE 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 WHITBURN HOUSE sales from May 1997 and November 2017 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 1997 sale was for 76% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 76% above the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it rises to 160% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 160% above the HPI.
