178 BACK HAMLET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Ipswich local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 178 BACK HAMLET sales between December 1997 and July 2010 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 October 2009 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the July 2010 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might 178 BACK HAMLET be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 78.3%, between July 2010 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Ipswich local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 78.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 178 BACK HAMLET of £145,000 on 7th July 2010. For the value to have increased from £145,000 to £258,464 over the fifteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
