WOODLEIGH 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 five WOODLEIGH COTTAGE sales between June 1999 and June 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 July 2005 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, which was also at 23% below the HPI.
