18 COMBS WOOD DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 COMBS WOOD DRIVE sales between October 1998 and June 2023 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 2019 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the June 2023 sale, where it rises to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.
