The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 12 BIRCH CLOSE sales between September 2000 and May 2018 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the December 2010 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI.
