1 ORFORD DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 ORFORD DRIVE sales from July 1999 and June 2014 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 July 1999 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it falls to 44% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% below the HPI.
