27 THE FIRS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 27 THE FIRS sales between July 1996 and September 2022 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 2004 sale was for 42% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% below the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it falls to 51% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% below the HPI.
