38 BIRDWOOD ROAD 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 two 38 BIRDWOOD ROAD sales from October 2005 and April 2018 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 October 2005 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it falls to 54% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 54% below the HPI.

What might 38 BIRDWOOD ROAD be worth now?
