The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two TOP LOCK COTTAGE sales from July 2007 and February 2008 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 2007 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the February 2008 sale, where it rises to 23% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% above the HPI.
