18 BEECHING 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 three 18 BEECHING DRIVE sales between July 1995 and March 2011 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 April 2007 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the March 2011 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.

What might 18 BEECHING DRIVE be worth now?
