CARTREF 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 three CARTREF sales between August 1997 and March 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 November 1999 sale was for 55% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% above the HPI over time, until the March 2007 sale, where it falls to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.
