9 THE 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 9 THE CLOSE sales from July 1999 and September 2021 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 45% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% below the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it falls to 54% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 54% below the HPI.
