1 BIRCH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 BIRCH CLOSE sales from December 2001 and June 2005 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 December 2001 sale was for 38% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% above the HPI over time, until the June 2005 sale, where it falls to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.
