1 CHAFFINCH WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 CHAFFINCH WAY sales between August 2004 and March 2018 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 June 2015 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the March 2018 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 1 CHAFFINCH WAY be worth now?

1 CHAFFINCH WAY might now be worth an estimated £307,388.

This is based on house price inflation of 17.3%, between March 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Mid Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 17.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 CHAFFINCH WAY of £262,000 on 1st March 2018. For the value to have increased from £262,000 to £307,388 over the five years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 CHAFFINCH WAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Suffolk local authority area.
• The March 2018 sale price of £262,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 CHAFFINCH WAY has not materially changed since March 2018.
