4A FOREST 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 4A FOREST ROAD sales from August 2004 and January 2006 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 2004 sale was for 73% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 73% below the HPI over time, until the January 2006 sale, where it rises to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.
