17 BANCROFT CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cambridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 17 BANCROFT CLOSE sales between July 2000 and April 2009 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 April 2006 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the April 2009 sale, where it rises to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might 17 BANCROFT CLOSE be worth now?
