3 VIOLET 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 two 3 VIOLET CLOSE sales from November 1998 and December 2021 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 November 1998 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the December 2021 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.
