POST COTTAGE 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 three POST COTTAGE sales between July 1996 and August 2018 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 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.
