2 DIAMOND 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 2 DIAMOND CLOSE sales between October 1996 and June 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 May 2011 sale was for 73% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 73% above the HPI over time, until the June 2023 sale, where it rises to 79% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 79% above the HPI.
