17 LAPWING 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 17 LAPWING CLOSE sales from April 2004 and August 2019 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 April 2004 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it falls to 38% below the HPI.
