5 FOREST WAY 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 5 FOREST WAY sales from May 1996 and July 2011 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 May 1996 sale was for 71% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 71% above the HPI over time, until the July 2011 sale, where it falls to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.

What might 5 FOREST WAY be worth now?

5 FOREST WAY might now be worth an estimated £622,050.

This is based on house price inflation of 77.7%, between July 2011 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the West Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 77.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 FOREST WAY of £350,000 on 11th July 2011. For the value to have increased from £350,000 to £622,050 over the twelve years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 FOREST WAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Suffolk local authority area.
• The July 2011 sale price of £350,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 FOREST WAY has not materially changed since July 2011.
