5 MERLIN GROVE 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 5 MERLIN GROVE sales from May 1996 and March 2002 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 May 1996 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the March 2002 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
