1 GOLDFINCH CLOSE 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 five 1 GOLDFINCH CLOSE sales between August 2004 and July 2022 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 2018 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it rises to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might 1 GOLDFINCH CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 1.3%, between July 2022 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 1.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 GOLDFINCH CLOSE of £425,000 on 11th July 2022. For the value to have increased from £425,000 to £430,698 over the one year and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 GOLDFINCH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Suffolk local authority area.
• The July 2022 sale price of £425,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
