85 THORPE WAY 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 three 85 THORPE WAY sales between December 2000 and July 2007 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 April 2005 sale was for 55% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% below the HPI over time, until the July 2007 sale, which was also at 55% below the HPI.
