The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 242 MAIN ROAD sales between October 1998 and May 2000 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 1999 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the May 2000 sale, where it falls to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.
