WILLOW 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 four WILLOW COTTAGE sales between May 1998 and May 2013 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 January 2008 sale was for 100% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 100% above the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, where it rises to 142% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 142% above the HPI.
