49 HIGHFIELDS 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 49 HIGHFIELDS sales from August 1999 and August 2014 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 1999 sale was for 55% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it rises to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.

What might 49 HIGHFIELDS be worth now?
