The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 38 THE LAWNS sales between June 2000 and August 2015 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 2012 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.
38 THE LAWNS might now be worth an estimated £314,242.
