4 LUARD 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 two 4 LUARD CLOSE sales from August 1995 and August 2014 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 August 1995 sale was for 52% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% above the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it rises to 153% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 153% above the HPI.
