5 THE LINNETS 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 four 5 THE LINNETS sales between September 2001 and August 2009 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 May 2005 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.
