The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 140 LONG ROAD sales between September 1996 and March 2012 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 January 2008 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the March 2012 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
