16 MALES CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 16 MALES CLOSE sales between April 1999 and February 2019 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 March 2011 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.
