The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 17 SAFFRON SQUARE sales between August 2005 and August 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 June 2007 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it falls to 42% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% below the HPI.
