The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 20 HIGHDOWN CLOSE sales between October 1998 and October 2007 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 August 2003 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the October 2007 sale, where it falls to 42% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% below the HPI.
