The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 FERN AVENUE sales from July 2018 and February 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 July 2018 sale was for 51% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% below the HPI over time, until the February 2024 sale, where it rises to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.
