4 BRIAR 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 three 4 BRIAR CLOSE sales between August 1997 and July 2019 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 July 2002 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it falls to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.
