3 FIR CLOSE 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 two 3 FIR CLOSE sales from October 1998 and April 2015 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 1998 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, where it falls to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.

What might 3 FIR CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 47.5%, between April 2015 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 47.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 FIR CLOSE of £169,955 on 22nd April 2015. For the value to have increased from £169,955 to £250,618 over the ten years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
