20 MELFORD CLOSE 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 two 20 MELFORD CLOSE sales from July 1997 and February 2004 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 1997 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the February 2004 sale, where it falls to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.

What might 20 MELFORD CLOSE be worth now?
