4 BROWNS CLOSE 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 two 4 BROWNS CLOSE sales from August 1995 and March 2024 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 August 1995 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the March 2024 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI.
