8 THE CROFTERS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 8 THE CROFTERS sales between June 1996 and January 2024 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 2021 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the January 2024 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.
