The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 14 THE LYNX sales between March 1996 and February 2023 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 2015 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, where it falls to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.
