17 MESSENGER CLOSE 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 17 MESSENGER CLOSE sales from September 2004 and April 2006 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 September 2004 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the April 2006 sale, where it rises to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.
